Set Up:

12-15 players are set up inside the attacking half, starting at the cones. To begin the drill, Player 1 plays up and back with Player 2, and then passes the ball thru to Player 3, making an inside out run from the center. Player 3 lays the ball off to Player 4, running down the line. Player 4 crosses to Player 2, making a delayed run in the center. Upon completion, the players rotate clockwise and the drill is run on the opposite side of the field.   

Coaching Points:

1.  Player 3 must hold his run and let the combination develop between Players 1 and 2.

2.  Passes should be made with one touch whenever possible.

3.  Player 4 has to hold his overlap run in order to time the layoff pass from Player 3.

Progressions:

1.  Add a defender in the penalty area.
