A great drill that forces the defense to rotate and communicate, and offense finding the quick advantages
Set Up
On 1 half the field, set up 5 cones on the perimeter. Start and offensive player at each cone, and place 5 defenders inside the house area. Coach will have balls out in space and will start the drill buy throwing a ball to 1 offensive player. The game is now live, and the matching defender must run around the cone from where the ball left from, and the off ball defense must slide to support the attacking player. The off ball offense should try to find open space and move the ball quick enough to get an open shot.
- Defense gets 1 point for stopping the offense and getting them back to neutral
- Defense gets 2 points if they are able to turn the ball Over and clear it successfully.
- Offense gets 1 point for scoring with the advantage
