THIS SHORT 2 MINUTE COACHING CLIP COMES FROM STEVEN POACHER'S EXCELLENT COACHING CLINIC IN ST JOSEPH'S SECONDARY SCHOOL IN NEWRY ON SAT MORNING THE 23rd OF OCTOBER, 2021.
HERE, DOWN LEGEND MARTY CLARKE, DOES A LITTLE BIT OF REACTION WORK WITH THE DOWN U15 PANEL. IN THE FIRST ACTIVITY THE PLAYERS HAVE TO TAKE NOTE OF THE CONE COLOURS AND REACT TO MARTY'S CALL SO THAT THEY THEN TURN, EITHER TO THEIR LEFT OR RIGHT AND SPRINT PAST THE SIDE CONTAINING THAT COLOUR.
IN THE SECOND REACTION ACTIVITY THE DEFENDER IS REACTING TO THE MOVEMENTS OF THE FORWARD. THEY FACE OFF AGAINST EACH OTHER, ALL THE WHILE MAKIGN SURE TO BE ON THEIR TOES AND THE FORWARD THEN TURNS EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT WITH THE DEFENDER IMITATING HIS MOVE. AS MARTY POINTS OUT HERE THE FORWARD SHOULD ALWAYS WIN THIS SPRINT AS HE HAS THE INITIATIVE...THE DEFENDER IS JUST REACTING TO HIS RUNS.
