Leap Frog- Stand in a line on a set distance between the fighters, the person in the middle chooses between the two fighters at his sides and fights one. If he wins, the person he beats goes to the middle, if he looses, he stays in the middle and fights the other. If he continues to loose he can just ping pong off of the two until he wins or someone can step in for him. Also, if he backs up into swinging distance of the other fighter, that fighter may swing at him for the kill. *Variations- Set it up like a time trial, after (?) seconds the other comes in and they must maintain somewhat of a line. *2V1- Middle fighter must fight both fighters while staying in somewhat of a line, the figher who killed the middle guy goes mid. If the mid kills both of them then the last one killed goes mid.
Practice learning how to escape from bad situations. Have it start out as sparring match for while the other fighter(s) advances from another direction, preferably from the back. The designated fighter must "escape" from the fighters with out being hit. Freedom is considered when the fighter can run away from the situation.
Triangle sparring- Set up in a triangle with just enough distance to be able to hit eachother. Free for all while staying in formation/distance. Itll teach them to look for openings while defending and itll often end up in random 2v1s that change rapidly.
We had 3-4 man practices for almost a two years and did a bunch of different things like this. All these practices are really good for is working on the things everyone needs help with.
