**Drill 1: Setting Across**

In this drill, players are focused on setting across and receiving passes from their teammates. The coach instructs the player to "set across" and receive the ball, emphasizing the importance of scanning and dropping back beyond the guard's reach again, opening out on the back foot, and playing it into the teammate. The coach wants the player to think about this movement as if they're going one way and then coming back to others. Once the pass is played into them, the coach instructs the player to slow down a little bit and approach the ball with caution. This drill emphasizes the importance of slowing down and controlling the pace of the game.

The coach also wants players to focus on receiving the ball, not just running in a straight line all the time. The drill is set up with cones for players to work around, allowing them to practice their footwork and movement. The coach praises players who are able to slow themselves down and approach the ball cautiously. As players progress through this drill, they will learn to open out and play the ball into others, setting up a series of passes that simulate game-like scenarios.

**Progression Drill**

In this progression drill, players build on what they've learned in the previous drill by adding an additional layer of complexity. The setup remains the same, with players working around cones to practice their footwork and movement. However, now players are instructed to drive to a cone on the outside as they approach it, but only if they take a small touch past it. This emphasizes the importance of slowing down and controlling the pace of the game.

Players must also be able to pass into each other while maintaining good timing and spacing. The coach praises players who are able to receive passes and make quick decisions on how to proceed. Players will continue to practice receiving passes, driving to cones, and making smart decisions on the field.

**Drill 2: Opening Out to the Goal**

In this drill, players focus on opening out to the goal, practicing their quick feet, and scanning for open spaces. The coach instructs players to look to drop in a little bit short towards them if they want to receive a pass. Players then move around the front of the mannequin, dropping on an angle to receive the ball on the back foot.

The drill continues with players moving across the next mannequin, following their pass and then dropping brilliance on the open side. The coach emphasizes the importance of playing with good face, using quick feet, and making smart decisions on the field. Players will practice receiving passes, moving around cones, and making sharp turns to create space.

**Drill 3: Face Time Passes**

In this final drill, players focus on simulating game-like scenarios through a series of one-twos in the middle. The coach instructs players to come to the flats first, pushing back off to the middle, then checking their shoulder and moving to the outside of the feet. Players then open it out, passing into the teammate, and moving in front of the defender.

The drill continues with players opening out on the other side, playing forward, and adjusting their movements as needed. The coach praises players who are able to receive passes, make smart decisions on the field, and maintain good timing and spacing. This drill emphasizes the importance of quick feet, face time, and making smart decisions in game-like scenarios.
