  • Setup

    Mark playing triangles with cones about 5m apart. Split into groups of 5 and give each 2 balls. Choose an attacker and a defender. The attacker has a ball, as does one outside player. The remaining 3 players work the length of one side of the triangle each.
  • Step 1

    The attacker inside the triangle must handball to one of the 2 teammates without a football while being harassed by the defender.
    No tackling is allowed, just jostling and intercepting handballs with a hand.
    An outside player cannot have 2 balls at once, so the crumber must find one of the other two.
  • Step 2

    Once the player gives to an outside player on the cone, they must turn and crumb the 2nd ball which has been handballed along the ground somewhere inside the triangle.
  • Step 3

    Continue for 60 seconds until they player gets a good workout, then rotate players.
