Pass And Move Square

Setup

You will require: 1 ball / 5 cones, The cones need to be different colors, The player is positioned in a 5x5 box using 4 cones, The coach/player B will be on a cone 7 meters away with a ball,

How it works

Coach/Player B calls a color, Player A who is in the center of the box dashes to that color cone and back to the center before making a two touch pass, the player must make contact with the cone using hands or feet, players are encouraged to explode with their movement but be calm for the touch, the touch should not force the ball out the area,

Progressions
