This week’s session will speed up your gameplay by teaching your players to pass and receive on the move. Let’s focus on how junior players can develop and improve the skill of passing and receiving on the move.
What's in the Session?
To get the ball rolling we open with some simple running relays, encouraging players to keep a high left elbow and their head up. Once players have been reminded of the correct running with the ball technique we then start to look at running out to meet the pass and receiving on the move before finishing with a fun conditioned game that everyone will enjoy.
Sportplan Tip:
Even though this session is focused on ‘junior players’, it can easily be adapted to suit the ability of your players if the speed of the pass is kept to the level of the players. The speed and distance can be increased once your players grow in confidence and control.
