After making the pass, s/he will run toward the player as a shadow defender (not trying to steal the ball). 3. The player receiving the pass will collect the ball to avoid the oncoming defender by taking his first touch in the direction of the player at the cone to his left. 4. The player will pass to the first player standing at the cone to his left and run toward him as a shadow defender. 5. Continue the cycle. 6.
