Description and Graphics
Players start this soccer speed exercise by placing themselves in the first square. Coach gives a command to start by calling two colors. Players must turn around these two cones in the given order without the ball in the first square and accelerate towards the ball in the second square where players turn around the two cones with the ball in the called order but in a different way as the sequence of the markers is different there. After turning at the last cone players accelerate towards the sticks with ball. Coach lifts up a cone which is a sign to players in Position B.

When coach lifts the yellow cone players have to make the wall pass around the yellow stick. Players in position B have to position themselves to the correct angle and place to be able to perform the wall pass correctly and fast. After the combination player A shoots on goal.
