Set Up:
Four players are set up inside of a large, narrow grid, with two players starting in the center and one player starting on each end line. Player 1 plays the ball up to Player 2, as Player 3 moves to a supporting position behind him. Player 2 passes the ball back to Player 3, and Player 3 plays the ball thru to Player 4. Player 4 continues the drill with a pass up to Player 3, as Player 2 moves to the supporting position. The drill continues back and forth across the grid, and the two end line players rotate into the middle every 3-5 minutes.
Coaching Points:
1. The supporting player should call for the back pass before his teammate receives.
2. When receiving, look for the support player while the ball is on the way.
3. The long passes should be hard, driven passes, hit with the instep.
Progressions:
1. Shuttle supporting players in and out from the side line.
