Teach your players to open their body to receive the pass and improve their first touch with this dribble and pass session.
This 90 minute session is designed to get your players dribbling and passing effectively, making the right decisions and thinking about how to beat their man or make the run to receive the pass.
What's in the Session?
Through a series of opposed, and unopposed practices your players will improve their ability to lose their marker and meet the pass, before finishing with a small-sided-game to highlight the importance of using the interior of the feet to pass with accuracy, precision and power, in addition to getting players receiving with the body in an open position.
