Players work with two cones and one ball between each pair. The cones should be placed about a meter apart to form a goal.
One player is the defender and the other is the attacker.
The attacker is trying to score a goal by running through the cones while the defender is trying to shield them away from the goal and make the tackle.
Players can score through either side of their goal and there is no "out of bounds".
Players work for one minute before changing roles. If the defender makes a tackle the ball should be given back to the attacker so that the drill can continue.
Attackers:
The attacker should try and use a change of pace and direction to create an opening to dribble the ball through the cones.
Defenders:
The defender should try and shepherd the attacker away from the cones with their body position by keeping a low center of gravity so that they can quickly change direction and make an interception when the opportunity presents itself.
