Description:

The "double clock" passing activity. All players are following their passes - Player 1 passes to 2 and runs into the center. Player 2 passes to 3 and switches with 1. Player 3 passes to 1, 1 passes to 4 and switches with 3. Note that there must be two players at the line where the ball starts.

Coaching Points:

• Look for open body shape on central players in order to quickly switch the ball.

• On checking away, player should connect quickly with the field in order to receive next ball.

• Balls should be played to back foot.

Progression:

Adjust touch count. Have players switch with passer instead of following their pass. For simpler version, use one ball, one central player.
