Community Manager

    in the founadtion phase lots of small area games of tag, close play of "piggy in the middle" none of these have the ball at the feet but incorporate lots of hand eye coordination, there fun with quick reaction times

    in my u16,s we talk alot about "what could happen" if the opposition make a pass, take a shot.

    if the ball comes into an area, are we in a position to invade and contest

    kicking rugby balls about in sessions helps the "second guess"  also with the different movements of the body you get when making an unusual move to intercept

    interception for me is anticipating, reacting, invading space, stopping play, timing

    the challenges can be if successful, losing the ball straight away of a bounce, so how can you control and keep the ball

    the rest of your team mates reacting to your decision to intercept

    is there  enough of a gain in a certain area to go for the interception or do you need to be more patient

    and lastly what is an interception?

    is it a rebound off their shot, heading a cross from the opposition

    breaking a pass down

    or just simply to start with "get the ball"
