Three cones are set up as shown. More than one player starts at the first cone. The ball is at the first cone. Each other player stands at one cone.
A plays a one-two with player B (1+2) and then passes cross-field to player C (3). C then plays a one-two with B (4+5) and then C plays a further one-two with D (6+7). After that player C (8) passes cross-field to cone II ( (I.e. Player A, who has now taken up his position there). Player A passes the ball to D (9). The same sequence now starts again. Runs: - Player A runs to cone II - B runs to cone III - C runs to cone I The positions are changed clockwise. Alternative: After half the time, the direction of play can be changed, i.e. the sequence runs anti-clockwise.
3 cones, Start by running the drill slowly and then speed up. The receiver should always make a small, dynamic dummy run away from the ball before receiving the ball. The drill can be extremely tiring when conducted quickly with only 4 players. - Under time pressure, this drill is very game realistic. - The reciever should call for the ball. - Pass and run timing is important - Players often run faster than their pass. - Don't forget the runs. - Demand good strength of pass and pass precision. - Pass precision is more important than pass speed. - Concentratuion must be held at all times.
