Set-up

All 14 players in the grid; three players are designated hunters (no ball) who must tag any player holding the ball for more than 3 seconds. Remaining 11 pass freely to avoid being tagged. Tagged player swaps into a hunter role. Coach keeps energy light — no tactics, just movement, touch, and laughter. Finish camp on a high.

Coaching points

  • Quick release — the rule punishes exactly what slows us down in matches anyway.
  • Move before the ball arrives; the best players are never standing still.
  • This is the last session before a real game — enjoy it.

Progressions

  • Reduce the grid to 20x20 to spike the fun and the chaos equally.
  • Final five minutes: free play, no rules, players set their own game — coach steps back.
