Phase 1 - The player on the red marker passes the ball to the player who has moved off the red mannequin and into the space. That player turns and dribbles through the mannequins and then passes to the player on the white marker. The player on the white marker plays a 1-2 with the player who is on the back of the yellow mannequin and then the ball is returned to the beginning of the exercise. Repeat the exercise with the yellow side of the exercise.

Phase 2 - The player on the red marker passes the ball to the player who has moved off the red mannequin and into the space. That player turns and dribbles through the mannequins and then passes to the player on the white marker. This player passes to the player on the back of the yellow mannequin who has moved into the space, dribbles down towards the mini-goal and finishes with a pass. Repeat the exercise with the yellow side of the exercise.

Phase 3 - The player on the red marker passes the ball to the player who has moved off the red mannequin and into the space. That player turns and dribbles through the mannequins and then passes to the coach on the white marker.
