  • Form a 10m square with 4 cones (use middle third of the court if available). Pairs line-up at both ends behind (1 & 2) and (3 &4 ).
  • On 'go!' (B) runs into the playing area to receive a pass from team mate (A)
    Defenders must start in the back half of the playing area for the first pass
  • (A & B) progress through the playing area while defenders attempt to intercept
    Defenders choose a player to mark and perform 1-on-1 defence
    Attackers use deception to throw defenders
    If a turnover occurs at any stage, give ball to next pair, then restart
  • Once both (A & B) combined have completed 2 passes, either can pass to (C or D) behind line (2)
    There is no limit to the number of passes (A & B) can make
    (C & D) can't move from their chosen position on the line
  • (C & D) repeat back the other way, again avoiding the same two defenders
  • After 1 minute or so, choose another pair to replace tired defenders
