Players have a ball each and must try to perform two keepy ups, dropping the ball from waist height and then kicking the ball twice with the same foot. The second kick should be targeted back into their hands with the lower laces part of their boot.
Try performing the double kicks with both feet. Two left feet keep ups and catch followed by two right feet kick ups and catch the ball.
There should be a slight back spin on the ball on both kick which will help the ball to come back to the player and avoid the ball running away from them.
Keep practising the double keep up until players are able to consistently perform this skill on the spot.
Being able to perform this skill with improve players' touch and confidence on the ball.
