Turning:

6 Players: 4 outside, 1 defender, 1 attacker.

Attacker checks to the outside player who feeds him/her the ball. The attacker then performs a turn and passes to a different outside player.

Extra point if the attacker can turn and pass from one side of the pitch to the other e.g from A to B or C to D

Have spare balls near every player so the drill keeps the intensity.

Is there any communication from the players with each other?

Key points

1. Arms out for balance.

2. Acceleration away from defender.

3. Knees bent

4. Change of direction at pace
