Setup & instructions

Set four cone stations in a Y: base, pivot at the fork, and the two arms roughly 15m up and out. Ball starts at the base. Play into the pivot who checks short, take the set back, then hit the third-man ball into the far arm. That player switches it across the top and the long ball returns to the base. Alternate arms each cycle; rotate players between stations every two minutes.

Setup time: 3 min

Coaching focus

FROM SESSION PLAN

Coaching points

  • Pivot checks away then comes short: never receive standing still
  • Set backs are one touch, weighted into the runner's path
  • The third-man ball is driven and firm, arriving as the runner does
  • Open your body on the arms so the switch is playable first time
  • Pass with your head up: see the next station before the ball arrives

Common mistakes

  • The pivot receiving flat-footed instead of checking to meet the ball
  • Underhit third-man passes that force the runner to wait
  • Watching the ball instead of scanning for the next station

Progressions & regressions

VARIATIONS

Progressions

  • All stations one touch
  • Add a passive defender shadowing the pivot
  • Players follow their pass and rotate stations continuously

Regressions

  • Allow unlimited touches
  • Shorten the arms to reduce the passing distance
  • Walk the pattern before running it at tempo
