Set Up:
There are four players set up inside of the narrow field, with one player at each end and two players starting in the center. Player 1 begins the drill with a long driven pass to Player 2. Players 3 and 4 make runs to support the pass from behind. Player 2 lays the ball off to Player 3, and he finishes the sequence with a thru pass to Player 4. Player 2 then moves to a supporting position, and Player 4 re-starts the drill with a long pass back to Player 1. *Note: The short layoff pass can be made to either supporting player.
Coaching Points:
1. Move to a supporting position while the ball is still in the air and show for the pass.
2. The layoff pass should be brought down to the ground for the support player.
3. Strike the long driven pass with the instep, giving it pace and back spin.
Progressions:
1. Limit players to one touch.
2. Add more players to increase the rest time.
