Setup
Use 1/3 of the court per 6 players (use centre court if less than 12). Choose teams of 3 and assign attackers. Players start as per diagram.
Step 1
The object is for the attacking team to pass to a player on each of cones (1 & 2 & 3 & 4). The order need not be sequential, as long as all cones are touched by a player in possession.

Having a foot within 30cm of the cone is considered touching

No player (attacker or defender) can 'hover' next to a cone - remain there for 3 seconds maximum before moving away.
Step 2
On 'go!', simulate a centre pass with (A1) heading towards either sideline where teammates (A2 & A3) lead from.

(A2 & A3) cannot remain on the sideline; the first pass cannot score.
Step 3
As soon as the first pass is completed, (D3) becomes active. Defenders attempt to intercept. They should be aware of the scoring zones that haven't yet been touched and cover those.

(D3) must remain on (1) until the first pass is made.
Step 4
An turnover completes the attackers turn, however if attackers reach all 4 cones, they score 1 point, which also ends their turn.

Optionally you can record the time if successful, with the objective to beat the quickest time.
Step 5
Rotate attackers and defenders and restart. Sub-on/off players as required.
