Set up three lines of three across the pitch.
The players on the half way line start with the ball and pass up to player 2's feet. Player 2 controls the ball and turns (where possible with just one touch) and plays a one-two (wall pass) with player 3.
Upon receiving the return pass player 2 shoots first time.
Make sure players 2 signals on which side they would like the return to pass.
After one run through players rotate up one position - so players 2 will move to the half way line and players 1 will be on the edge of the 18 yard box.
Complete this drill at full pace.
