1) This small-sided game uses zones. Here, the aim is to transfer the ball from zone 1 to zone 3 via zone 2 and back again. Red in Zone 1 passes to his team-mate after a dummy by Red in a central position.

2) Red lays it off immediately with one touch.

3) Red passes to the initial player who made the dummy.

4) He passes to Red in zone 2 who with a maximum of 2 touches puts the ball back into play (he cannot be tackled). Here, possession is eventually lost. The duration of the work periods are the same as in variation 1.
