Organisation

Four mannequins and four poles are set up as shown.
Distances can be changed according to the given age category and to the required aim or intensity.
In this soccer passing activity there are three variations.
The optimum number of players is 8, but  the second variation can also work with 10 players.
Players change their positions continuously in alphabetical order.

Description and Graphics

This exercise contains three variations. 

  • Variation 1: There are 4 positions and players change continuously between them after their passes in a special running path. This activity is performed with one ball.
  • Variation 2: We add two more positions and two more balls (B and E). Players also change their positions and roles in alphabetical order in the determined running way bypassing the poles as shown.
  • Variation 3: The players are located as in Variation 2, the only difference is that the player in position 'D' also holds a ball, so this variation is performed with four balls at the same time.

In the variations the runs should be intense and the combinations of the players need to quick and precise.
