First Touch Through the Zone

Work in groups of three. Two outside players face each other with one receiver between them. Mark a smaller central zone inside the working area. The receiver alternates between receiving inside and outside the central zone.

Scan before receiving; receive side-on; first touch into the next action; pass to the correct foot; move immediately after passing.

• Outside players move to new positions after each pass
• add a wall-pass combination before finding the opposite player.

• Keep outside players fixed and remove the touch limitation.
