EXPLANATION

Players divided into 3 teams of 2 with 1 neutral player – activity starts 4v2+1

When 2 central defenders gain possession, they switch outside, team that lost the ball move inside as new defenders – if ball is taken from neutral last team to touch ball switches inside

PROGRESSION

Limit touch count

Score points for consecutive passes

COACHING POINTS

In possession – create angles to receive, anticipate next pass, slide side-to-side, open body shapes

Neutral – look for pockets, play the way you face, try to turn and progress ball if possible

On transition – quickly play the ball outside to remaining team, drop back to line rather than turning from game
