Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): #2 Passing & Receiving (Start Time: 2017-08-28 21:35:00)

Passing Numbers (15 mins)

Squares should be adjusted for level of player. Start small and instruct players to pass in numerical order. Let them go for a minute or so after every break add details.

Communicate numbers, everybody moves, two touches across body, eye on ball, eye contact, gesture and lastly spatial awareness.

Two touches across the body receiving on back foot move across body and play back with opposite foot

Eye on ball to receive and to pass

Eye contact between 1st and 2nd touch

Gesture by showing with your hand what foot you want the ball on

Spatial awareness meaning try to be opposite your passer with loads of space, not behind of close beside (as in #1 & #2 in image)

Porgessions

Reverse and/or ask for a dribble move or turn before passing

3v1 Competition (15 mins)

Pass in numerical order same as before, using all the correct techniques learned. When the coach shouts a player's number that player, in this case #4, for each team tries to dispossess the ball from the remaining three players of the opposite team. Teams no longer need to go in order but they need to keep the ball away from the oncoming defender from the opposite team.
