TLI U9 Intermediate Week 1

This Practice Plan introduces some very basic fundamentals of ball handling. It also starts the players with shooting (as opposed to playing catch) so they can establish a good throwing and shooting motion. The games at the end are all focusing on running and cradling the ball and picking up groundballs.
