While performing this drill there must be groups of 3. Two participants will be trying to pass to each other using the 3 passes spoken about in the first passing drills.This incudes chest pass, shoulder pass and bounce pass. In this drill the defender will be moving around trying to get the ball off the other players but NO CONTACT WITH PLAYERS!!, the defender must make sure to try get the ball and not touch participants because for the most part it is a NON CONTACT sport.
While performing a pass with a defender you must make sure to try trick them you could do a fake pass where you pretend to for example do a shoulder pass but quickly transition into a bounce pass. This will help the players have a successful pass. The defender must make sure to also trick the players thinking they are going to be in one direction but switching as the ball goes to the other player. Must always keep eye on the ball in order to track its movement
