The attacers pass the ball to each at the top of the D. The player reciving the ball must move towards the ball to receive it to avoid any interception.
Include a defender that can put pressure on the player taing the shot. This is more realistic to game situation.
To encourage the attackers to fight for the ball back if they have been turned over, give the defender a goal to score in, which will give the attacker time to still win the ball back and tae a shot.
To avoid slowing down the rythm of the drill, if the attacker loses the ball but wins it bac form the defender, let them score in the side goals. This means the next players can start the drill without waiting for the whole back and forth of the players ahead to play out.
