An exercise for dribbling, feints and quick combinations between two players. Eight players line up as in the drill's diagram (about 12 cones and a mannequin) and rotate in alphabetical order. The first player in each position has a ball, and the drill is run in both directions. Each player dribbles inward towards the mannequin and performs a set feint in front of it. Then everyone turns 90 degrees and passes the ball to the next player through the cones. Variation 1: players perform different set feints and receive the ball between the cones with different parts of the foot: inside, outside or heel. Start at a moderate intensity and build up.

What the coach should look for
- Technique first, build intensity gradually.
- Head up, not down at the ball.
- Use both feet and all parts of the foot.
- Run the drill in both directions.
