Use 4 cones to create a field of play 30x30 yards. Place random cones throughout the area. Form players into pairs. Players will all be passing at the same time in side the area. Avoid interferring with other balls and players while passing. VARIATION 1: Set some different time intervals, and see how many passes they can complete in that time period. VARIATION 2: Once a player passes the ball to their teammate, they must run around one of the cones on the inside of the square avoiding other players and their ball.
Focus on good 2-touch and 1-touch passing technique. Use scanning and vision to avoid other players and their ball.
