3v3+2 in 20×15 m: a point for moving the ball from one end neutral to the other. The receiver in the middle scans before the ball arrives and plays forward on the half-turn.

Rules

  • Point for a neutral-to-neutral move through at least one team player
  • End neutrals two touches; inside players free
  • Restart from the neutral of the team that won the ball
  • 1.5 min rest; rotate the neutrals every round

To make it easier

  • Add a third neutral inside the box

To make it harder

  • End neutrals one touch
  • Point only if the middle receiver plays forward first time

Coaching points

  • Inside players form a triangle around the ball
  • Free player shows on the side away from the defender
  • Middle receiver scans and plays forward on the half-turn
  • Counter-press for 5 seconds after losing the ball
