Topic:
Passing, Change of Direction
Explanation:
This is a game of tag with a twist. We introduce 'passers.' These players have a ball at their feet and can free anyone who has been tagged (frozen out of the game) by dribbling towards them and playing a wall pass. While the group have fun and develop change of direction, scanning and change of pace, the passer will additionally be working on dribbling while scanning the area and passing the ball with power and accuracy to free their teammates in need.
Coaching Points:
1. Reach around the soccer ball to make a sharp change of direction.
2. Use the inside of the foot to make a short, accurate pass.
3. Look up and scan the field between dribble touches.
