  • Even numbers behind corners of 10 x 5m rectangle.
  • (A) starts with a pass to the opposite wing to (B) who performs a *lead and dodge*, starting wide then receiving centrally
    (B) catches almost in line with the centre circle
  • (C) and (D) both lead wide towards their closest sideline. (B) chooses (C) to pass to.
    The ball should be moving in roughly the same direction as the previous pass
  • (C) now crosses to the opposite wing with a long, flat pass to (D)
    (D) leads wide, then dodges into the centre towards (C)
    (D) catches almost in line with the centre circle
  • Next (A) and (B) both present towards their closest sideline. (D) completes the loop by passing to (A)
  • Progress for advanced teams by widening the cones 1-2 metres each, making the pass more difficult.
    For even more difficulty, insert a defender into the middle who can intercept (if you have 9 players)
    You can have a defender patrol each end if you have 10 players.
