Step 1

Step 2
Meanwhile, defender (D) covers (C) who leads between cones (3 & 4)
(C) will naturally present to the cone closest to the person with the ball, so (D) should look to cover this side

(A / B) can
fake pass
to (C), if (D) over-commits then (C) can dodge and receive.
Held ball rule applies
