Passing & Receiving

Colour Code:

If players struggle to understand the patterns that you want them to run and try using 2/3 different coloured cones (depending on number of players). Each player after having passed the ball has to run to their next coloured cone etc. You could try this on all the previous exercises and for patterns of play for 2 or 3 players on the pitch.
