@offtheball@m_brosnan@AIB_GAA Agree with @m_brosnan 💯
1. Remove the forward mark.
2. Remove the handpass point.
3. Don't allow a pass to the Goalkeeper if they are in their own half.
🗣️ 'The exact problem is that possession!'
🗣️ 'I think you need to incentivise the risk-reward balance.'
@m_brosnan wants to make one change to the current #GAA rules that will stop teams holding possession in their half of the pitch. | 🏐

✴️ Principles of Play ✴️
▪️Set players up according to the issue you want to address.
➡️ The coach calls the delivery zone number to start the exercise.
✅️ Spatial Awareness
✅️ Communication
✅️ Game based Scenario
@gaa_mole I can understand from a coaches point of view why you would do it but from a players point of view, it is the last thing that they want at this time of year. It might put a lot of players off returning to training.
Managers/Coaches, please resist the urge to complete fitness test on the first session back. Use the first few sessions to have some fun, use the ball and build team morale! Players do not want to be embarrassed on their first week back!
@BankOnthe@GAAmeCoaching The rules and size of the pitch could be easily adjusted to suit the levels of fitness of the players involved but in general a 7 v 7 in football could be played between the two 21 metre lines with the sideline brought in 5-10 metres on each side.
@GAAmeCoaching I would be very interested to see if any club have taken on this approach and see if it did result in any injuries?
From a players point of vew, I could not think of a better way of getting fit than playing games. It could also bring a bit of fun and team bonding to preseason.
@nomorecones I imagine the issue for most would be:
1.) Lack of suitable pitches (most club pitches closed at this stage)
2.) Without a base level of fitness, it could lead to a significant number of injuries
