The outside player passes the ball anti-clockwise to the player running out of the middle, who receives the ball by the next outside cone (cone A).<br /><br /> This player then passes the ball to the next player running out - timing their pass so that it arrives at the outside cone as the runner does.

The defender  runs out, with their body positioning blocking the direct pass to the support player (player 2). Just before the player 1 gets within tackling range of the defender they perform the reverse stick drag to go around the defender's reverse stick side (defender is not allowed to run back).

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
