  • Setup

    Even numbers at stations (A - E). One ball at each end held by (B) & (C).

  • Step 1

    (A) leads out from deep in the pocket so (B) executes a 45 degree angle kick.
    All players run in straight lines. (A) can use the center square as a guide, (B) just left of center.
    The key is to give the ball some loft so players can adjust if the kick is slightly off

  • Step 2

    (A) marks and backpedals. (B) then runs forward to accept a 45 degree kick from (A) then backpedals.

  • Step 3

    Continue in this fashion until a player is close enough to kick to (C).

  • Step 4

    (C, D & E) do the same down the opposite side of the ground
    Players when joining the other end, rotate between lines (A & B) and (C, D & E)

  • Step 5

    Progression: Spread cone (A & B) and (C, D & E) further apart for longer, wider kicks.
