Objective
- To be able to combine, run with and without the ball, turn open, pass, and finish on the goal.
- At least 2 participants are active. With a goalkeeper, there is a third person active.
- Player 1 starts without the ball and runs from point A to point B.
- Player 2 stands at point E and plays the ball to player 1 in stride.
- At point B, player 1 plays the ball back to player 2 and continues to point C.
- Player 2 plays the ball to point C so that player 1 can receive it there.
- Player 1 turns inside and runs to the top of the circle.
- At point D, player 1 finishes on the goal and exits the exercise on the right side.
- Player 1 takes over the position of player 2.
- Player 2 runs to point A and joins the back of the line.
- At point B, player 1 can make a turn to position their body between the ball and the opponent.
- Player 2 can give the second pass in stride to player 1 between points B and C.

Objective
- The objective of this training is to actively offer yourself between the ball and the defender, making yourself available for a pass.
- The player at point B starts running and moves in an arc past the orange cones to make themselves available.
- The player at point A passes to the incoming player and runs around the designated cones towards point B.
- The player at point C runs in an arc around the orange cones, paying attention to the position of the player at point B.
- The player at point B passes the ball to the player who started from point C.
- The player from point C receives the ball before the orange cones, dribbles into the circle, and finishes on goal.
- The player who has finished runs around the cones back to point A.
- Reduce the training area by removing one station, requiring fewer players.
- Change the starting position to adjust the direction of availability.
- Add an extra station at the goal for a tip-in, noting that more players will be needed.
- Keep the ball close to the stick while dribbling to prevent losing the ball.
- Make yourself wide when offering to effectively position yourself between the ball and the defender.
- Pay attention to timing when starting to run.
- Make passes before the orange cones to ensure clear running in front of the player.
The team is divided into 2 squads:
- 1 team to the right of the circle
- 1 team to the left of the circle
- One player from each team will stand at the blue pot and on the 23 meter line at the orange pots.
- The rest of the teams start at the red pots.
- The ball passes through a push from the red to the blue and from the blue to the orange pots.
- When the player at the orange potty receives the ball, this player dribbles until he is in the circle and then finishes on goal.
