Place 5 cones across the middle of the area, 10 yards in from each sideline. Play 4 vs 4.

The ball is not allowed to travel through or over the discs. The object of the game is to get the ball wide in the near side of the field and attack the flanks of the attacking area.

Although the ball is not allowed to travel over the discs, players may make runs over the discs.

Red 1 passes the ball to one of the teams to start the game.

There should be 3 players in both wings and 8 players in the centre of the pitch. The wing players cannot be tackled and the central players are not allowed into the wing areas.

In order to score a goal the team in possession must make 5 consecutive passes before passing out to their wide man. The wide players must both touch the ball before it is crossed in for the team in possession to attack it, with the other team defending the cross.

After an attack on goal has been made the ball returns to red 1 who feeds the ball out to the other team.

Station four players in each grid, with one ball per practice.

The white team start with possession of the ball.

Player 1 on the white team passes the ball into the opposing area. The white team can then send two players into the opposing area to defend.

A goal is scored when the blue team makes 5 consecutive passes without an interception.

Repeat in the opposite direction.
