Y Pass: One-Two Switch

Set up

Field

Arrange four cones in a Y shape. Place base cone #1 15 yards from center cone #2. Set top cones #3 and #4 10 yards from the center cone.

Players

5 or more players. Use 5-6 players, with one player at each cone and the remaining players queued at cone #1.

Balls

Keep two balls in the Y to help the pattern maintain its tempo.

2. 2.Player 2 receives with the body open and plays to Player 3 at the top left.
3. 3.Player 3 combines with Player 2 for a quick one-two.
4. 4.After getting the return pass, Player 3 switches the ball across the Y to Player 4 on the top right.
5. 5.Player 4 dribbles quickly back to cone #1 and plays the ball to the next person in line.
6. 6.The next cycle again starts Player 1 to Player 2, but this time Player 2 plays to Player 4.
7. 7.Player 4 completes the one-two with Player 2 and then switches the ball to Player 3.
8. 8.Continue alternating the pattern from side to side.

After each rep
