Set up with 3 gates spread out as shown. 1 ball in front of each gate.
They race through the area (zig-zagging) passing their balls in between the cones (1 point for every successful pass).
Upon completing the passes they take 1 of the balls at the end and dribble it back through the starting area, 1 player back gets the bonus point.
Look for good firm passes with different part of the feet (mainly interior and exterior)
Manipulate the distance of the balls from the gates as you see fit.
Depending on the ability of your players you can change the size of the gates.
