Progreesion 3:

Player A passes to Player B who comes to meet the ball and plays a 1st time pass back to Player A. Player B then repositions in their zone to receive another pass from Player A to be passed 1st time to Player C.

Player C then restarts the sequence in reverse. After 5 passes from each side, rotate players.

Encourage your players to be creative with how they receive the ball and move it around. Don;t get caught up on back foot/front foot because it depends on where defender is so they need ot be able to do it all.
