Instructions
- 1Divide 6 players into 2 equilateral triangles (4-5 meters per side)
- 2Triangle 1: P1-P2-P3 (on left side)
- 3Triangle 2: P4-P5-P6 (on right side)
- 4MAXIMUM TEMPO: Pass as quickly as possible
- 5Triangle 1 passes clockwise: P1→P2→P3→P1→P2→P3
- 6Triangle 2 passes clockwise: P4→P5→P6→P4→P5→P6
- 7Both triangles move simultaneously (offset start by 0.05s)
- 8Players stay in place - passes only, no movement
- 9Complete 2-3 full sequences (6 passes each) without stopping
- 10Focus on: Quick release, soft hands, rhythm maintenance
- 11Success metric: Zero drops, zero slow passes, machine-like consistency
Coaching Points
- Snap the wrist on release for fast flat passes — no push passes at this tempo
- Hands up and ready before the ball reaches you; late hands cause drops
- Find a rhythm by counting passes aloud: one-two-three, one-two-three
- If one triangle breaks rhythm, both stop — the drill demands synchronized speed
- The goal is mechanical precision, not just speed — a fast bad pass is still a bad pass
