Organisation

Cones are used to create four equal sized areas in front of the penalty area as shown. Players work in pairs. Pairs perform the exercise continuously from one side to the other. Players change role periodically.

Description and Graphics

Attackers (A) start the task with passing the ball to the defender (D) who lays it back to the attacker. From this moment the exercise is active. Attacker tries to beat the defender without leaving the marked area sideways. Defender can only act in the area. When attacker reaches the penalty area he has to finish the action with a shot on goal. When defender wins the ball he has to dribble out of the area.
