Pass, Move and Receiving

Organisation

Technical warm up - Area: 30 x 30 playing area. This exercise shows 8 players, but can be added up. Two footballs are used.

Instructions

1. At the start of the exercise group A passes the ball to the right and group B passes to the left.

2. That receiving player quickly moves away from the cone, which acts as a defender, receives the ball on the back foot and passes the ball diagonally.

3. The next receiving player moves off the cone, receives the ball on the back foot and passes to the starting position.

4. All players follow their pass.


Variation

Players can stand in front of the cone and move the ball with the outside of the foot.

Group A now starts by passing to the left and group B to the right.

Coaching points

Pass, Move and Team Work

Organisation

5 v 5 game, but can be updated or reduced. It is split into three areas. A GK, 2 defenders, 2 midfielders and 1 attacker. This can be arranged with more players. All players play in their zones.

Instructions

1.Once a ball is played into the next third, the best player that is positioned to support the possession team can move into that third of the field and offer support and this adds more players against the other team.

2. When the ball is played into the forward, two players on the possession team can go in and help, again this adds more players against the other team.

3. Once possession is lost, that team must move back to their original positions very quickly

4. Can the team that regained possession quickly counter because the opposition are out of balance? 

Coaching points

Once the ball is played forward does the team attack quickly or keep possession and use the extra players to their advantage?

Quality passing, moving and communication.
