Organization: 8-10min
Set up : cones, balls, grid size to match players abilities

Progression: Add another ball in to challenge the players
Coaching points : Technical - Passing:
See the player first (communicate, eye contact, vocal or using your body)
Body position (planting foot slightly ahead of the ball so your body is over the ball, eyes on the ball, lock your ankle, follow through, weight of the pass, part of the foot, and part of the ball)

Put your players in pair and set up a ball on a cone for each pair.
The players starts off about 4 or 5 yards away from the ball on the cone (battleship). Have them take turns trying to pass the ball into the battle ship and knock the ball off the cone, if they hit the battleship they have to quickly reset the ball on the cone.
Make it into a competition, which pair can hit the battleship the most in two minutes.
If it is too easy make them take a step back every time they hit the battleship.
Make sure your players are using correct technique, plant foot next to bal and striking the middle of the ball with the inside of the foot. Can the players do this with both feet?
