Description: Straight forward passing and moving drill with only two touches on the ball. The blue players off the ball can only receive the ball at one of the four cones in each corner of the area and the red player is trying to intercept the ball. Progressions: 1. Defender walks through the activity, then progresses to passive and finally active resistance. 2. Allow players to move away from the corners and play freely in the area.
