Set Up
Create a small sided game using cones, starting with one goal to the nearby restraining box. Put players of each team, alternating around the playing area, as the bumpers. Its a live 3v3 game, and to trigger the offensive possession, a team must pass it to a bumper first before attacking the goal. For example, if team 1 turns it over, team 2 would start their possession, and pass to a bumper to trigger the offense. Player for 1 minutes, add in new players. Play for 10-15 minutes and make it a competition.
Coaching Points and Principles

- Offensive – off ball play like picks, action to space, and using bumpers to work on give and go’s
Progressions or Constraints
- Play 4 v 4
- All off ball play starts with a Pick
