Setup

In this drill, players use the neutral players in the middle zone to combine with one-twos, break forward, and finish from the wing.

１）Split the field into a few zones and put several players on each wing.

２）Drop two neutral players into the middle zone (about 15 x 20 yards).

３）The player on the ball uses a neutral to play a one-two.

４）Then a wing player drives forward, takes the final pass, and shoots.

５）When you switch turns, the players from the other team run the same flow at the same time.

６）Keep it rolling, rep after rep.
