Get one ball between 3 players.
Two stand opposite each other passing the ball back and forth, whilst the third (the defender of the situation) runs around the two in an infinity symbol/figure of eight pattern, attmepting to intercept the passes.
The trio should rotate positions every 3 minutes.
Start with chest passes, then begin to switch the passes up if the defender is getting the hang of the drill.
You can change the distance between the two attackersto make it easier or more difficult for the defender.
Tips:
- Make sure the passes are 'bullet passes'. In a real game, they won't 'soften' the passes to make it easier for the defender.
- As a defender, always keep your head up and your eye on the ball
