For this drill, you need to set up two rows of 6 cones parallel to each other and a single cone in between the two rows at either end. where possible have the cones that are in the rows all a different colour from the ones that are in between the rows, this is to reduce the chance of confusion on where to dribble. Split the players into 2 groups and have them start with a ball at the start of each row diagonal from each other and have one player on each of the single cones.
Have the players weave through the cones while dribbling the ball. When the player with the ball gets to the end of the cones they need to pass the ball to a player that will be standing on a cone in between the two lines and after they pass, move to replace the player that they passed to. when the player on the single cone receives the ball have them stop it with their foot and then pass it to the next player in line at the starting cone in the opposite row that the ball came from. Then Repeat till everyone is where they started.
