A passing drill that trains basic passing and receiving, vision, head orientation and quick decisions. Four players: place four cones as positions with a pole or mannequin in the middle. The three outside players keep rotating positions, the inside player is swapped out now and then. Two balls are used at the same time and the drill is run in both directions. The outside players must move into the free space right after each pass. Variation 1: C passes to D in the middle, moves to the free corner, D rolls the ball towards A and passes, A and C play a quick exchange, D turns towards B to ask for the second ball, and the sequence repeats. Variation 2: D acts as a wall player and lays the ball back to the outside players. Source: Pro-soccerdrills.com (YouTube).
