Description

Use a cone as a virtual defender to demand game-speed moves.

The constraint

Cone at wing represents defender. Coach calls 'left' or 'right' — attack opposite, finish.

CLA principle

Read external cue, execute attack at full speed.

Coaching points

  • First step crosses defender's lead foot.
  • No wasted dribbles.

Common mistakes

  • Dancing behind the cone.
