Show and practice the basic concept of "clearing" out of one part of the pitch in order to make space for other team mates to run into and catch a pass.

Clearing
Themes:
Basics
Setup:
A thrower, A, starts with the disc. 1st receiver, B, sets up 10-15m in front of thrower and slightly to one side (diagram shows left side so as to favour a backhand throw). 2nd receiver, C, sets up another 10-15m away and slightly to the opposite side of the thrower.
Rotation:
A > B > C
Step 1
- On a given signal, B moves across the playing area.

Tips:
Dominick Smyth says:
Encourage B and C to acknowledge each other before they start moving. C is only able to get the disc if B is willing to move out of the space. It is important that players recognise this effort by their teammates.
