Set Up:

Eight cones are set up around the outside of the grid, creating eight gates for the attacker to try and dribble through. The attacker starts in the center of the grid with four defenders encircling him, guarding the gates. Play begins with the attacker passing the ball back and forth around the circle with the defenders. At any time, the attacker can touch the ball towards a gate to begin his attack. After the turn is complete, a new player moves into the attacking spot.

Coaching Points:

• Manipulate ball

• Constant change of direction
