This soccer drill focuses on quick, creative, offensive plays between 3 players.  Protecting the ball, quick passes, and using space are areas of focus for each player.  To set up the drill, place four cones in a 30 yard by 30 yard square.  One Forward and one defensive player start inside the cones.  Two more forwards and defense are waiting just outside the square.  On the whistle, the coach passes the ball to the forward in the box. The forward protects the ball from the defense until the next whistle.  On the second whistle, the second set of players join the play in the box.  F2 and F1 play a quick game of ball control against D1 and D2 until the third whistle.  On the third whistle F3 and D3 join the play.  The forwards now make a quick play to get a shot on net.
