Description Instructions: Set up circuit is illustrated. Divide the team into two equal groups. Place two players in front of the center cone, and two on the opposite ends, one on each side. The ball is played to the center player, who then turns to play a diagonal pass to the end player. (Rotate. Follow each pass to the next cone) The receiving player carries the ball, dribbles through the cones to the start of the circuit and begins again. Drill starts on both sides, on slightly after the other in order to avoid clashing and confusion. Coaching points Keep the ball as close as possible. Look up regularly. Use both feet. Use correct technique when carrying the ball. Play well weighted passes using the instep. Meet the ball.
