Organization:

Area: 15y x 15y

Set up large cones in the grid. Work with two groups. Players dribble to the first cone and perform a 1v1 move, followed by a quick dribble to the next cone. At the next cone, the players make a turning move and join the opposite line to change directions. Use a variety of 1v1 moves and turns.

Coaching Points:

For Dribbling: 

• Lean forward and over the ball

• Knees bent, on the balls of feet

• Relax body

• Balance is a must

• Keep ball close

• Use inside, outside, instep (laces) and bottom (sole) of both feet

For 1v1 Move Attacking:

• Controlled approach (touch ball on every step)

• Head up, see where the defender is

• Begin the move at the correct distance from the defender

• Quality of the move: weight and direction of the two touches, use of upper body to emphasize the fake

• Accelerate out of the move

• Head up, connect with your partner and play a good quality pass.
