Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Oxford Athletic FC Passing and Moving Warm up drill

Animation 1 (10 mins)

Pass and move warm up.

The distance between the cones are important as this will setup for short passes and long passes. We must make sure that the long pass are instep passes and the ball must stay on the ground at all times. 

Passing sequence;

• Player 1 passes into player 2, once the pass is made, player 1 and 3 move forward.
• Player 2 lays the ball off to player 3 and player 1 keeps running towards the opposite cone (where player 5 is standing).
• Once player 3 receives the ball, he makes a instep pass to player 4 and follows the ball to replace player 4.
• The sequence repeats this time with players 4 and 5.

Start slow build tempo later on. No one touch passes in this warm up as we need to build the right technique. 
Challenge for the players: Can we receive and pass with both feet?
Coaching points;
See what their passing and receiving skills are like.Notice if they are using both feet and how they control the ball.
Make sure they understand when to move, they may struggle as this is not part of our game since we sometimes wait for the ball to come to us.Make sure they are communicating.rotate the middle player halfway through the warm up.
