Dribble or pass? 2 vs 1

Players work in threes in this drill, 2 attackers trying to get past the single defender and score in one of the two goals.

The white player starts with the ball and dribbles towards the defender where they are presented with two options: They can either pass to the supporting player or take the ball themselves to go and score in one of the two corner goals.

Eliminating a Player

2 v 1 (Left To Right)

Three players set up in a triangle formation, with the two attackers as the base of the triangle. The ball carrier is on the left side
The ball carrier makes a positive run towards the outside of the defender
Player without the ball (support player) runs into space to receive a pass and communicates they are ready to receive the pass
The defender should get attracted to the ball and ball carrying attacker. As soon as the defender engages, the ball carrier should pass right to the supporting player
