The players line up in groups of 5/6, they then do their usual warmup excercises (knee ups, side steps, lunges, squats, sprints...) in the rectangle set up ahead of them. At the end of the rectangle, the coaches will kick or pass to a player calling out for a ball. Once at the end of the rectangle, that group jogs back into the starting position and does another warmup exercise.
Only pass to a player calling for it. Make sure all the players are doing the drill correctly and not taking it lightly. Start with the easier exercises like knee ups and then eventually build that up into squats, jumping squats, lunges and then move on to sprints.
