4 cones are set up as shown. Two or more players start at the start cone, cones I + II have one player each. The ball starts at the start cone.
Process
Player A starts the passing sequence with a pass to player B. He then runs diagonlly infield while B sprints towards cone III and D to cone II. Player A controls the ball played back from B with one touch, runs with the ball for one or two meters and then passes to C. A runs diagonally and receieves the ball from C with Cs first touch. C then runs around cone III to cone I where he joins the next sequence. At the same time player E sprints towards player A. A changes direction after controlling the ball and dribbles at speed towards player E and tries to go past him with a trick. The coach decides whether player E should be active or passive. E is replaced by anbother palyer and joins at the start position.
