Setup

Pitch: Cones mark out the playing area.

Equipment: Cones and one ball per team.

Players: Two teams of four players each; the players in each team are numbered from 1 to 4.

Procedure

The following tasks are completed one after the other:

  1. From dribbling, pass to the team-mate with the next number, who controls the pass safely, takes it in their stride and passes it on: Player 1 passes to Player 2, Player 2 to Player 3, Player 3 to Player 4 and Player 4 back to Player 1.
  2. As before, but passing after two touches at most.
  3. Play the combination pass, return pass, pass with the next player.
  4. Only pass once the team-mate shows for the ball with a short sprint and a running feint.

Tip

  • Change pace after every pass.
  • Demand communication.
  • Take the ball into the movement with the first touch.
