Drive and Kick

The habit every spacing offence is built on: one player drives a gap and the other four move on the drive rather than watching it. The strong-side wing drifts to the corner, the weak side lifts and replaces behind the ball, and the kick goes to whichever man the helper left.

Also called: dribble drive, drive drift lift, gap drive
