Player 1 starts the drill by passing to player 2. On receiving the pass player 2 runs with the ball towards the next cone on the opposite side.
Player 1 also starts to run at this moment. As player 1 and 2 cross paths player 2 offloads the ball to player 1 who dribbles it around the next cone.
Player 2 continues their run (without the ball) around the cone.
Both players repeat this pattern to the end of the grid.
Both players should be running at all times. Smooth passing and no stopping!
