Organization:

Set up a diamond shape, but only use three cones for the triangle. Three players at the starting cone, one or two at other cones. Players follow their pass.

Step 1:

Player 1 passes to Player 2, Player 2 passes to Player 3, Player 3 dribbles the ball back to Player 1.  Player 3 could also pass the ball back to Player 1.

Variation 1:

Player 2 bounces the ball back to Player 1. Player 2 turns and receives the ball back from Player 1. Player 2 plays a leading pass to Player 3. Player 3 dribbles the ball back. It’s very important that Player 3 times the run and is not ahead of the ball.
