• As the players jog across the field, player A passes the ball to B, who passes back to A, just until they reach the opposite sideline.
• The roles reverse when the players reach the other side of the field. Player A then runs backwards to the line where they started.

Variation possibilities:

• alternate from right foot to left foot.
• try to apply one hit

  • After 2 minutes the player in the middle changes to another player.

• Duration:
  • 20 min
• Distance:
  • Width per section 6 mtr length 8 mtr.
• Objective:
  • Search for the attacker in possession of the ball and pass to him so that he can score.
  • The four players are only allowed to move in their own box to protect the passing line.
  • The 2 attackers are free to move around the four squares but behind the defenders.
  • When the ball is in the possession of the attacker, the defender can try to conquer it in that square.
  • If scoring is too easy, the attackers are obliged to play at least once before they can score.
  • When there are more players in the box, you have to add more players.
  • If there is an uneven number of players, 1 team has more attackers but then the rule that attackers must play at least 1x over before they can score comes into effect.
