Bad Stepping during a game Under 10's A grade need help

My girls play in A grade for under 10's and they were doing very well until last week where every player was picked up for stepping more than once. They played terribly and obviously lost confidence with their feet so their passes were lobby and they were not thinking about where they were passing. We practice drills at training but I need really good drills help them intuitively feel their grounded foot vs moving foot. Can anyone suggest anything?

look up drills for teaching balance. take off from one foot and land on both feet. start from a static start then from dynamic and then add a ball and a pivot. also it could be that they dont know how to slow down. if you have a team of fast running players they know how to run into space but not how to stop effectively. have them slow down a little til they have strong footwork. lots and lots of footwork drills. there are heaps of you tube videos around that show lots of great drills for teaching balance. just have to go searching for them.
