Set up with 2 cones as shown and a player in the middle with a ball.
The players makes vertical movement from one cone to the other performing toe taps moving forwards and backwards.
Look for good contact with the toes, moving the ball forwards and rolling it backwards accordingly with the movement they are making.
Player(s) should avoid too much heel contact with the ground.
You can maniplulate the distance between the two cones accordingly.
You can have 2 players working in the area to add a form of passive pressure.

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
