Control and passing (15 mins)

Passing - opening your body

Players in 2 groups of 4 or 5

Each group plays around a square of cones. Players pass around the square with the instruction that when the ball is coming to them, they must make a sharp movement away from the cone (moving off their defender) and receive the ball across their body, controlling it in the direction of their next pass

Encourage players to open up and angle their body to allow the ball to be controlled in the direction they want to play

Change the direction of the passes every few minutes

Can add a second ball to increase the difficulty and speed of the drill

You can pit the 2 groups agianst each other with the challenge being which team can keep the ball under control the longest

Groups of 5 - 5th player doubles up on 1 of the markers and starts with the ball, all players must follow their pass

Overlap drill - set up (15 mins)

Passing overlap drill (video link also)

Combine your 2 groups into 1 and set up large rectangle using flat markers with 2 (or 3) players at each marker and coach in centre of pitch as a target defender for the players to dribble towards (this will help control the drill)

1 ball in play, A starts and passes to B

B drives towards the passive defender (the coach)

As B dribbles towards the defender A makes overlapping run behind

B must time a pass out in front of A and A must time the run not to get ahead of the ball. Emphasise timing and working together

A receives the pass in front of him and then immediately plays a pass into C

B continues run to back of the opposite line (D)

C and D now replicate the same combination in the oppposite direction

Keep the drill running until it is going smoothly and at pace then change it up as follows;

1. Swap A's with B's and the C's with D's so that the players swap roles

or

2. Start ball with B so B makes overlapping run to A's left

If time allows use both these progressions

Return to original teams and small sided games free play, encourage passing and use of overlaps where the opportunities present themselves

Goal is to be the first team to score 3 which ends the games and teams rotate clockwise

First player on a team to score shouts TICK as does the second and scored of the third shouts BOOM
