Description
- Groups of four, players stand in a T shape with about two yards between each player.
- The player in the middle is the focal point and each round is designed to test that middle player as they will be doing the most passing and receiving.
- Player A - Player B
- Player B - Player C
- Player D - Player B
- Player B - Player D
- Player C - Player B
- Player B - Player A
- Player D - Player B
- Player B - Player D
- The middle player must receive from the side and pass out the other side.
- The middle player then plays a one-two return pass with the player opposite.
- The middle player then receives the ball from the side player they just gave it to and passes it back across to the original passer.
- Another one-two with the player opposite is then played.
- Switch positions clockwise after 20/30 seconds.
Coaching points
- The game is all about quick hands, always being ready to receive the next pass.
- Once the middle player passes, they need to ensure their hands are in a good position around the torso height, to receive the next pass.
- The trigger for passing to the middle player is when the ball leaves the middle player's hands on the prior pass.
- Give the middle player as little time as possible to be ready to receive the ball.
