Objective: To get a player free in front of goal. To be in a position to balance up after the counter. Ideally to get the centre back free on the opposition 2 metres having swam of the centre forward.
Description: The players defending the 2 metre wings make themselves available on both wings at half way. 5, 6 and 3 in the diagram head for the left post and cut out to the left if they get there too early to receive the ball. Ideally 3 will become free to receive a pass and score on the left post. |

The ball should be taken up the right wing. The options are:
- a pass to 2 at half-way, then on to 1 and across to 5 - a pass to 1 then on to 5 - a pass to 2 then directly on to 5 |

If the counter attack breaks down, the centre forward heads for the hole, while the other players take up their normal positions.
