• Move ball quickly and before defender can get to you
• Lead teammate with pass when appropriate

 _ _ _ _ _= Player moving

_______= Ball being passed
 

• Groups of 4 in each grid, 3 offensive players positioned with one player at each corner of the grid keeping one cone open and having 1 defender in the middle of the grid
• Offensive players must run to the open cone and be ready to receive a pass at that open cone if he is open

Simplifications:

• Have defender play passive defence
• Increase the size of the grid so passers have much greater area to pass in and easier to pass the ball by the defender

Extensions:

• Defender plays live defence
• Defender must get 1 touch on the ball to become a passer
• Defender must gain possession of the ball to become a passer
• Decrease the size of the grid
• Passers are only allowed two touches which will increase the speed of passing
