Double Run And Receive Back Foot Activity (SG)

Setup

You will require: 3 balls / 18 cones cones, line the cones up approx 2 meters apart, number the cones 1-6 across the line or use different color cones, Coach/player starts on cone 1 while the player starts on cone 6, Coach/Player B has the ball

How it works

Coach/Player B calls a color or number, Player B sprints to that cone and then begins to run backwards away from the ball, the pass is played when the player begins to move backward, they take the ball on the back foot and dribble to the end before returning the ball, For example if cone 2 is called the player sprints to cone 2 but receives at cone 3
