Set Up:
The players are in pairs with a ball, set up between two cones. When the coach says ‘go,’ the player with the ball dribbles towards their opponent, trying to beat him 1v1 and touch the cone with his ball. If the defender wins the ball, they try to score by touching the other cone with the ball. The game continues for 45 seconds. After this, rotate the players so that they all have new partners.
Coaching Points:
1. Use dribbling and feinting moves to get the defender to move out of your path.
2. Accelerate after your move to leave the defender behind.
3. Once past the defender, shield the ball from tackles from behind.
Progressions:
1. Allow the attackers to score at both cones.
