Hockey: Through Pass

4 players with 2 balls. One player in the middle is tightly marked. One of the players with the ball passes the ball at the marked player who then wall passes the ball back to this player for him/her to run with the ball to the other side. Then the 2nd player with the ball does the same once on the other side. Turn and repeat role reversal in the middle.

No matter where you are on the pitch, if you feel that you cannot continue to apply pressure towards the goal Then start to play away from defender, and play the ball to your supporting player; this player then has the choice to:

1.Change the point of attack by passing the ball across the pitch, or
2.Pass the ball to the original player.

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2, who plays a 2v1 with player 3 through the channel. Once through, the attack becomes a 4v2 to try and score a goal. The defender in the channel stays and waits for the next attack.

Set out a pitch 3/4 length, with two lines of cones to make the pitch slightly narrower.

The white team in the middle has to try and score a goal at either end against either set of defenders to get out.

Every time the defence gets the ball they must give it back to the attackers who then have to attack the other side.

Defenders are only allowed to defend inside the 23 m area, the defenders at the other end are not allowed to defend past the 1/2 way line.
