This exercise is focussed on creating opportunities for our fullbacks to overlap particularly during counter attack situations where the opposition fullbacks have pushed up.
The rotation sees the following occur:
- Fullback plays the ball into 6
- 6 plays the ball into the feet of the winger
- Winger plays the ball into the feet of the 9 and continues their run towards the back post
- The 9 plays the ball back to the 6 who attempts to feed the ball into space for the fullback to control and cross into the winger who has cotinued their run
Rotation:
- Fullback replaces winger
- Winger replaces 9
- 9 replaces 6
- 6 returns to the end of the line
- Timing of runs from fullback and winger
- Quality balls into feet
- First touch control to take the ball into the direction you want to go
- Weighting of the ball from the 6 into the path of the fullback
- Quality crossing into the box

Possession without purpose is pointless. These drills combine ball retention with physical conditioning to create teams that dominate and outlast opponents.
Teams have just 6 seconds to exploit a turnover before defences reorganise. Learn how to train your players to attack with speed and purpose.
The U10 age group is the golden window for developing ball mastery. Miss it, and you're playing catch-up forever. Here's how to get it right.
