• Increase the distance between the cones so that players have to hit further.
• Increase both distances.
• Increase the speed.
• Deliver as many successful passes as possible within the time limit.

Key Points

• Stick should already be on the ground when receiving the ball.
• Pass the ball to the forehand side.

• At point A, the player performs a drag movement and passes the cones.
• The player passes to point B.
• At point B, the player receives the ball and dribbles to point C.

• The player at position B passes the ball to the player at position C and runs towards point A.
• The player at position C receives the ball at point D and passes it to point A.
• For rotation, player A moves to B, B goes via D to C, and C moves to A.

• Variations in striking techniques can be applied (hit, push, slap).
• Distances can be adjusted to vary the difficulty level.
• Cones can be placed for passing in between to increase precision.
• Smaller cones increase the difficulty level.
• The ball from C to D can be rebounded.
• The ball from D to A can be rebounded.
• Point C can be placed on the other side for backhand and forehand variation.
• With a 90-degree setup of points B and C, the exercise can be performed from a different angle.
• Different scenarios can be set up to vary the exercise: standard, mirrored, 90-degree setup.

• As a trainer, observe the different techniques of the players.
