Triangle with a free return

Organisation

Four players: A1, A2 and A3 against B1 in a square. All attackers may move; there are no fixed corner stations.

Execution

Three consecutive passes score one point, but a return counts only after the previous passer creates a new angle. B1 may intercept. On a regain the player losing possession defends; restart out-of-bounds with a free attacker. Also rotate after 45 seconds.

Coaching

• Move out of the cover shadow after passing.
• Offer two different passing angles.
• When was a return safer than playing forward?

Easier

B1 walks and may only screen passing lanes.

Harder

A point must include the third player; two players cannot make all the passes.

What to observe

Count points and check whether the passer genuinely became available before a return.

Equipment

Sticks, one active ball, spare balls outside the area and cones; mini-goals where drawn. Dimensions and duration are adaptable starting proposals.
