- Four stations with players split equally over them.
- To begin with, players will stay on their station to repeat the play one after each other, getting comfortable with the movement & technique.
1. Movement from the player on nearest post to come through the line of poles representing players in a defensive line, where is a one-two combination is played.
2. The player then plays a through ball into the path of a player that moves from the furthest pole, curving their run through the defensive line to receive the ball on the move.
3. A pass is played into the mini goal.
- When the players are comfortable with the practice, add rotational changes, once you've done your job, move to the station on the right.
Progression
