Combining to take the ball past the defender to score

Description

In this session we are focusing on combining to shift the ball into space and finish. The drill begins with the red player receiving and playing to the blue player first time. In order to do this, the player needs to pull off from the cone/pole and let the ball come across the body. The ball player also looks to play first time to set the ball into space for the red player to move onto, before shifting the ball either side of the mannequin/pole to finish. As soon as the player finishes, they look to drop in to receive the ball off the coach and set into space for the blue player to time a 3rd man run to receive, shift and finish. The players will then swap over and repeat. The players should ensure that they time their runs to meet the ball. Each set should consist of 3 - 6 reps and should be completed at least two times per side.
