TECHNICAL PHASE 1 - PRACTICE SESSION ( 15 MIN) Introduction to the training topic

ORGANIZATION

Soccer balls, color vests, 10 players, cones, mannequins or (Poles, cones)

Area 10 x 10.

Split the players into groups of 5, in two separate areas, Add 1 mannequin, or pole at the middle of each area ( grids). Place 1 player besides the mannequins and the remaining players splited on each end of the grids, as showing above.

Playing starting at the coaches command with each players from each end, taking a touch and a dribbling towards the mannequin, the receiving players will call for the ball, and show to receive it , around the mannequin, as soon as he turns he will pass it to next  player ahead of him and follow his pass.

Once  the opposite player received the pass, he will initiate the drill going to the other side.

PROGRESSION

The attacking player now will stand in front of the mannequin, and only receive the ball with his front foot, so he can understand How, Where, why, and his body shape in order to receive the pass. Yet how to turn, where to turn, when to turn and why to turn this way.

( The objective of this session is to teach the players:

1 - When to receive, Where to Receive the pass, How to receive the pass, and Why he will receive the pass on his back foot or on his front foot.

2 - Teach them to get the habit to look over the shoulder in order to create a separation from the defenders to receive the pass

3 - How to recognize the trigger point prior to create the separation upon receiving the ball

4 - What movement he should be doing in order to receive and turn.
