Set up as shown with 2 cones (the distance of which between can be modified depending on ability or challenge you want to set your players).
1 player on each cone and 2 players in the middle, 1 ball between the 4.
Play begins with a pass from the outside into the middle. The middle players combine to get the ball out to the other side.
The sequence is then repeated from the other side.
Ideally get your players playing with 1 and 2 touches.
1 touch when laying the ball off and 2 touches when required to body their body and play a pass.
Demand firm accurate passes to help improve the players first touches.
