Set it up
Three players occupy three corners, leaving one empty. Use one ball.
How to play
Pass to a teammate, then move to the empty corner. The receiver looks for either available teammate and keeps the triangle changing.
Make it easier
Walk through the movement without a ball first.
Add a challenge
Add a passive central defender who blocks one passing lane.
What to watch for
The passer stays at the old corner. Use the cue “pass, find the empty corner” until movement follows naturally.
Take it into a game
Finish with a short small-sided game and look for the same passing decision without the activity’s extra conditions. Ask a player to describe one moment when it helped. Keep the next round simple if the skill disappears under pressure.
KEEP IT SIMPLELook for space. Keep the ball within reach.
