Player 1 starts the passing loop with a pass to player 2, who has previously moved away from his &#8220;opponent&#8221;<br \/>\n2. Player 2 controls the ball, if possible with the first touch and passes the ball with the second touch to player 3<br \/>\n3. Player 3 receives and plays to the oncoming player 4<br \/>\n4. Player 4 drops and moves back into the triangle<br \/>\n5. Player 3 plays a pass to player 5, who plays a double pass with player 4 through the triangle<br \/>\n6. Player 5 completes the run with a long pass to player 6<br \/>\n7. All players move on one position, there is no break and player 6 starts immediately after receiving the ball<br \/>\n8. Double movement, going for the ball and passing speed counts for each player and for each pass<\/p>\n<p>Organization:<br \/>\n1. 6 cones<br \/>\n2. Positioning of two triangles (large triangle approx. 15x15m &#038; small triangle 5m high)<br \/>\n3. Place players as shown &#8211; occupy positions twice<br \/>\n4.

Accuracy of the Pass &#8211; In front if no opponent near, behind if opponent close<br \/>\n4. Timing &#8211; When to release the ball to best help team mate<br \/>\n5. Type of Pass &#8211; Inside of foot to ensure accuracy or spin, laces for longer passes, outside of foot when under pressure or to shape away from opponent<\/p>\n<p>Variations:<br \/>\n1. Easier &#8211; reduce passing distance (make large triangle smaller)<br \/>\n2. Easier &#8211; allow more touches between each pass<br \/>\n3. Easier &#8211; decrease passing speed<br \/>\n4. Heavier &#8211; increase passing distance<br \/>\n5. Heavier &#8211; max. two touches (reception + pass)<br \/>\n6.
