When they're on the ball in a game situation players can sometimes experience rabbit in the headlights syndrome, this is when they panic and hold onto the ball too long, missing the perfect passing opportunity and eventually running into a dead end. To stop this happening to your players we've created a session which works on the two Ps - Passing and Pressure.
