EXPLORE:
Train short passing technique, body shape, and supporting angles in groups of three — the smallest unit that creates passing triangles, which underpin almost every team's possession game.
Fork it into your private drills, then change the animation, adjust positions, swap equipment, or drop it into a session block.
Three cones forming an equilateral triangle, 5–8 metres per side. Two to four players queued at each cone. Ball at the front of one cone.
The player at the front of a cone passes clockwise to the next cone, 2 touches (control + pass). After passing, they jog to join the back of the queue at the cone they just passed to. The next player at that cone steps up to receive and continue the pattern — meaning every cone always has a player ready to take the ball, and the rhythm never breaks. Continuous rotation. Progress to: 1-touch, change direction on coach's call, add a feint before the pass, then to a 1-2 combination with one of the receivers acting as the "wall" before the next pass.
