Set Up:

During play, the four players pass the ball around the grid in any direction, including a diagonal pass across the field. At any time, any player (Player 2 in the diagram) can touch the ball towards any other player and dribble straight at him. When he does, that player (Player 3) must run out of his corner towards a third player (Player 4). The third player must then run to the space vacated by the player who started the rotation (Player 2). Once a player has completed his dribbling run to the next corner, he can start the passing sequence again OR he can keep the dribble and go to another corner to start another running sequence.  

Coaching Points:

1   Players should make eye contact and talk on every pass.

2   Players waiting to receive should open their stance and be able to see the other three players.

3   Anticipation of the dribbling run is vital, especially for the third player involved.

Progressions:

1.  The dribbler can turn and go back to his corner before reaching the halfway point of his run. When he does, the other runners must go back as well, always keeping sight of the ball.

Players Required:
