- Line of players one side
- Players should utilise the V-drag left to right to manouevre round the cones
- Ball should remain under control through the gate
- Players must get there feet around the cones, as if they were a player to get around
- An initial drag to the right increases the effectiveness of this skill
- The initial dribble of the ball should be made at an angle
- Increase the length of the cones requiring a larger drag to be used
- Install a second line of cones to require a further elimination to occur
- Use a goalkeeper and have the players shoot on goal after the V-drag. Having something else to consider during a drill will increase a players ability to think during a game
