4 players or more. 1 ball.
Blue 1 drives forward to receive the ball from White 1.

Blue 1 lands, turns and feeds to Blue 2, before returning to the back of the blue line.

Blue 2 feeds to White 1 driving on to the ball.

Players work with one ball in pairs inside a square area. The player without a ball (Red 1) sprints across the box to receive the ball on the other side.

Player 1 then turns as they receive the pass. Red 2 then runs across to receive ball on the other side etc.

Make sure players are balanced and are in control before they make the next pass.

The worker must not move across the square until the feeder is ready to release the ball.

The first team starts with the ball inside the attacking third, with all the other players except one stood outside the area.

The aim for the team in the area with the ball is to complete as many sets of 5 passes as possible. Every time they complete 5 passes another defender from outside the area is allowed in to try and intercept the ball.

Once all of the defending players have entered the playing area, or after an interception has been made, the teams change over and try to beat the first teams score.

On receiving the ball from the feeder player 1 turns.

Players 2 and 3 should both make strong sideways movements in opposite directions, the defender can go either way.

Player 1 must try and pass to the unmarked player as quickly as possible.
