2 players standing at opposite cones. Both players run in opposite directions as its a race against each other. Cones are spaced out approximately 15 metres apart. (Grid = 15m x 20m) On the coach's whistle both players have to sprint around the cones until either the player behind them catch's them or they have completed a 90 second period. The object is to sprint and try and catch the player infront of you, while maintaing a safe distance from the player behind you. The exercise is contested by 2 groups of 2 pairs and a point is given to any individual in one of either the pairs if they catch their partner during the exercise.
Variations: Change the spacings between the cones. Use poles to stop players cutting the corners.
