Organisation and layout

Technique drill

  • 2 areas set out, 6 players in each paired up opposite each other. Technique practice of passing ball between each other. 
  • Unopposed, low intensity drill, coach will be moving along outside of area and shouting out some mechanics as the drill is progressing such as make sure to keep eyes on the ball, follow through with foot etc and mention into any individuals who need it any mechanics where necessary. 

Key factors

Players get used to the mechanics of passing - 

1. Look at target
2. Eye on ball
3. Angle of approach
4. Non-kicking foot alongside ball in a
comfortable position
5. Strike Centre of ball with inside /
outside of foot (Identified area of the ball)
6. Firm ankle
7. Follow through towards target

  • Coaches reinforce the mechanics during drill


Progression, Regression and Adaptations

  • A number of options such as pass first time, 2 touch, move further apart, move closer, different part of foot such as side foot for example.

Organisation and layout

Skill drill

  • Areas have already been set from technique drill so smooth and quick transition. Keep the 6 players in each area and play 4 on outside and 2 acting as defenders.

  • If can split the 2 defensive players with a pass through them then they stay in for another go, once the defenders regain possession then whoever loses possession and the person on their left will become the 2 in the middle.

  • This has become a skill drill as it is now opposed with opposition players and there is a challenge to the drill now and realistic to a game situation.

  • Mechanics will again be covered by coach reinforcing them when the drill is live so ball rolling time is maximised.
