Passing with Overlapping in a Diamond Variation I

  • Organisation

    Set up a diamond/corss as shown. Two or more players start at cones I and IV, one player starts at cones II and III.

  • Process

    Player A passes to B and overlaps him. Player B passes with his first touch to C. C passes the ball for A to run onto who passes to D and then takes his place behind him. D now starts the same sequence with C and B in the other direction. Players B and C should regularly change places with the other players.

  • Tip

    - 4 cones.

    - Start by running the drill slowly and then speed up. The receiver should always make a small, dynamic dummy run away from or to the side of the ball before receiving the ball. The drill can be extremely tiring when conducted quickly with only six players.

    - Under time pressure, this drill is very game realistic.

    - The reciever should call for the ball.

    - Pass and run timing is importan.

    - Players often run faster than their pass.

    - Don't forget the runs.

    - Demand good pass precision.

  • Field size

    20 x 20m

  • Cone margins

    10m from the center to the edge of the diamond.
