A large box and a small box are formed with 8 cones. 16 players spread themselves across the cones as shown. Two players start at the first cones. Each group of four has one ball.
The drill starts with a long ball (1 - vertical) from A to B follwoed by a pass for C to run on to. Player C then passes the ball back to the start position to player D. This exercise can continue at the same time with 4 players per drill at the other 3 sets of cones.
- 8 cones.
- This drill is very tiring.
- The standing leg is often too far away from the ball and/or the player leans back.
- Timing of the pass is important.
- Players often run faster than they pass.
- Demand good strength of pass and pass precision.
- Pass precision is more important than pass speed.
- The second pass must be passed for player to run on to.
20 x 20 Meters
The outer cones are 20m apart. The inner cones 10. The distance between the inner box and the next cone is 5m.
