Organization

Divide players into three equal groups. Place one pole, one hoop and one low hurdle about 15 meters away from the goal, spaced 3 meters apart. Every group of players stay near their equipment, each player with a ball. Behind each piece of equipment place a cone about 5 meters back. The goalkeeper defends the goal.

Description

The exercise begins with the coach calling two of the three pieces of equipment (in the example: pole and hoop)
The players linked to the called equipment sprint and go around the cone behind them
The first player called acts as the attacker (red), and the second one as the defender (green)
After going around the cone, the attacker retrieves the ball placed beside their equipment and aims for the goal. The defender tries to contrast the attacker's action, a 1v1 situation is created
When the action is over with either a conclusion by the attacker or ball recovery by the defender, the two players swap their starting positions and go in row waiting for their turn

Variations

The first player called is the defender, the second player is the striker
The first player called doesn't move, the second is the striker, and the third not called is the defender
