1v1 left right attack:

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2, player 2 has to try and score.

The defender has to start 5 to 10m away from a cone. They have to run round the cone first, before trying to stop player 2 scoring.

Defender can run to touch cone as soon as player 1 has passed the ball to player 2. Rotation 1-2-1.

Eliminating a Player

1v1 defence in box:

The front player in the cones is the attacker and they have to move around to create some space for themselves. They then receive the ball from the player at the front of the queue and have to turn, beat the defender and then shoot at goal. The attacker then becomes the defender, the defender goes to the back of the queue and the person at the front of the queue becomes the attacker.
