Open Body Position with a Shot at Goal

Pitch: Seven cones mark the positions; there is a goal at one end.

Equipment: 7 cones, 1 goal and several balls.

Players: The rear players as passers, the front players as receivers; plus a goalkeeper.

Variation 1:

• The rear players pass to the front players.
• The receiver controls the ball, turns into an open body position and finishes at goal.
• The passes are played from left to right so that the receivers always get the ball from different positions. Alternatively the centre is occupied twice, and the outside players pass to centre left and centre right.
• Afterwards the passer takes the receiver's position; the receiver collects the ball and takes up the position at the cone of the previous passer.

Variation 2:

• The outside players become defenders.
• Alternatively or in addition, a passive defender is added in the centre.
• The rotation order is: receiver, passer, defender, passive defender in the centre.
