Receiving, turning and shifting the ball in tight areas

Description

In this session we are focusing on receiving, turning and shifting the ball in tight areas. The drill begins with the coach passing to the player on either side of the cone. The player then scans and drops to furthest cone whilst opening the body out to receive on the half turn. The coach then passes to the player to takes the ball on the back foot before turning back and then shifting through the cones to pass back to the coach. The player should maintain close control when taking the ball through the cones. Each set should consist of 4 - 6 reps and should be completed at least three times.
