Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): 2003 Boys Practice #4

Circle Passing with Fitness

Circle Passing with Fitness

Have the group go in a circle and pass to one another. All passes muct be 1 touch and the ball can't leave the circle or stop. When a player passes the ball they must run to the designated cone and then come back to the grid. If they do this too slowly, the players in the grid won't have someone to pass to and the drill will die. Goal is to do this for 3-5 minutes without a mistake. Talk to the kids about their focus and attention to detail with thier passes. The weight and direction of the pass, communication and eye contact.

4 Players Passing and Moving

4 Players Passing and Moving

Progression from the 3 Players Passing and Moving. This time since you have 4 players the movement is that much more confusing.

A. Player 1 passes to player 2 (the player not on either side of him) and then moves to the open space. Player 2 will do all the same details as the 3 player version.

Player 3 (the player next to the player receiving the ball) will fill the space of the passer.

Player 4 will fill the open space.

B. Player 2 now has the ball and again passes to the player not next to him which is now player 3

Player 3 does all of his details when he receives the pass

Player 4 who is next to the player receiving the pass fills the passers space

Player 1 fills the open space
