Set up 2-3 players on the corner positions, 2 midfield recievers and 2 players centre on the endline. Following the pass, begin at the top and play into the m/fielder who gomes off to recieve and turn. he will relay the ball to the bottom center player. Continue as before to the top right corner. The top player will dribble across to the starting position. The Red team will repeat the same rotation. To introduce a second ball and at the Red end place 2 red midfield players in the central position as well. The exercise will flow and utilise the full squad
Good weight and direction of pass. Quality first touch. Receiving players on half turn to take the ball and quick release. Quick movement to next position. Good communication.
