Setup:
Place gates randomly (1 gate per 2 players) around your training area.
Players partner up across from each other passing through the gates.
1st Activity:
2 touch passing through the gates using the inside surface of the foot.
2nd Activity:
1 touch passing through the gates using the inside surface of the foot.
3rd Activity:
Pass outside of the gates and take first touch to the other end - pass across to teammate - repeat. (do not pass through gates - but on the outside of them). Use multiple surfaces (inside/outside).
4th Activity:
Have players see how many gates they can pass through. Moving throughout the grid passing through various gates.
Make each activity a competition to see who can get the post passes in a set-time (30 sec - 1 min, etc)
Coaching Points:
Activity 1: Plant foot next to the ball - pointing to your target. Open your hips. Heel Down, Toe Up when striking and receiving the ball. Keep your ankle locked.
Activity 2: Strike the ball in the middle (not below or above the mid-line) to ensure it stays on the ground. Follow through keeping your knee bent through the process. Have ready feet to receive
Activity 3: Open hips to take your first receiving touch to the other side of the gate.
Make eye contact with partner
Lock ankle, follow through
VARIATIONS: Switch partners after each activity.

Organization: 8 players (4 blues 4 whites). 13 balls. 5 cones.
Instructions: Blue team aims at the balls in the middle. All fire at the same time. They get a point for every ball they knock off its cone. Then other team goes. First team to 3 points win, then rematch.
Coaching Points: Passing technique - Instep, lock ankle, standing foot aiming at target, follow through, eyes on the ball.
Progressions: Pass from further back, add more balls, weaker foot.
