CB's start play by recycling the Football to the #2, who then looks to play in the #6, he then looks to play in #7 who plays a give & go to an advancing #6/8 who then looks to play between the lines as the #7 gets behind his opposing FB.
#7 then delivers the cross behind the defensive players for the #9/10/11 to finish after having lost their defenders with curved runs.

Progress: Play any combination now to work the ball beyond the back four. Either get it wide for the cross or split pass the CBs.
Mirror image the drill for the other side.
