Organisation
The area is marked with cones in a diamond shape, approximately 10×15 meters in size.
A mannequin is positioned in the centre to simulate an opponent or obstacle.
Players position themselves along the sides and corner points of the diamond, rotating positions through continuous movement.
The exercise can be run with multiple balls simultaneously to maintain a high tempo and rhythm.
Description and Graphics
Players follow a predetermined passing pattern with a strong emphasis on one-touch play and involving the third man.
During the combinations, players pass around the central mannequin, practising optimal angles, body orientation, and opening passing lanes.
After each pass, players move on to the next position, ensuring constant activity and fluid rhythm throughout the drill.
The purpose is to help players recognize situations quickly, think ahead, and execute precise, well-timed movements to maintain the continuity of the combinations.
