Passing Circuit, #2
Passing Circuit, #2
Set Up:
There are 12-16 players set up in the attacking third, starting at the cones. To begin the drill, Player 1 wall passes with Player 2, and then plays the ball up to Player 3. Player 3 opens up and changes the ball over to Player 4 as Player 5 overlaps him. Player 4 sends Player 5 towards the corner for a cross. Player 3 makes a delayed run and finishes on goal. Upon completion, the players rotate to the next cone. After 10-15 minutes, the drill is moved over to the other side of the field.
Coaching Points:
1. The short passes in the combinations must be played directly to feet.
2. The long pass from Player 3 to Player 4 has to be a driven ball.
3. Player 3 must hold his run and wait for Player 5 to look up.
Progressions:
1. Add a 1 v 1 inside of the penalty area.
