A simple exercise to get the players moving, the player on the circle will lead to the ball and receive it with a very low body position, keeping their body still they will give the ball back. To the starting player who has ran around the cones on either side and will take a shot on goal. Passing with the body still, forehand or backhand passing, no need to rotate the body. Perfectly weighted passes so the attacker does not have to stop moving. Saying the name of the player while passing to keep communication high.
