MEDIUM
This drill sharpens players' ability to keep the ball when space is limited and pressure is immediate. Two attackers work together against one defender, forcing quick decisions and accurate passing in tight quarters. Players learn to use first time passes when appropriate and develop the vision to see their teammate's movement before receiving the ball. The confined area means there's no room for heavy touches or slow decisions. Attackers build chemistry by reading each other's body language and creating passing angles through constant movement.
