Straight channel race

How it works

1. Mark narrow channels with cones, 3m wide and 15m long.
2. Players race down their channel with a ball. Stepping out of the channel means starting again.
3. Then add a still defender halfway down the channel next to them, to run past without leaving the channel.

Coaching points

• Eyes on the try line, run forward.
• Ball in two hands.
• Straight and fast beats wide and slow.

Ready for the next level when: Players run straight to the line at full pace, even with a defender beside them.
