Set Up:
Eleven players are set up inside of the grid, starting at the cones. The Feeder begins play with a driven pass across the grid to Player 1 (the Feeder can pass to 1 or 3). Player 2 makes a run from the opposite side to receive the back pass from Player 1. He settles the ball, turns, and plays the ball thru to Player 3. Upon completion, the next group (in blue) begins play from the other side, working with the other Feeder. The players rotate to all three positions during the course of the drill.
Coaching Points:
1. All players must watch the play develop in order to time their runs correctly.
2. The back pass should be a one touch pass that Player 3 can run onto.
3. The up and back combination is the visual cue for the thru run.
Progressions:
1. Also use the up, back, and thru combination.
