Triangle Passing with One-Twos Variation I

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 passes the ball cross-field to cone II (I.e. Player A, who has now taken up his position there.)

The same sequence now starts from the beginning 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.

- Concentration must be held at all times.
