For this drill your players will need to get into groups of 4, with 1 ball between them. 2 players work inside the grid whilst the other 2 stand on opposite sides.
The defending player is only allowed to stay on the line (marked out with cones).
The player without the ball starts next to defender and can only receive the ball behind the defender. The feeding player with the ball has to pass the ball to this player, aiming to pass without having the ball intercepted.
On receiving the pass this player pivots and passes the ball to the other player.
To make it harder you could mark an area around the defender so that the passing needs to be more accurate.
