Dictating the centre pass to gain possession of the ball
Develop your player's understanding of how to use their body to dominate and limit the space available to their opponents focusing on a centre pass scenario.
1 team starts with the ball and tries and make 10 consecutive passes. The other team can send 1 or 2 players across to try and win the ball for their side.
If the other team wins possession back for their team the roles reverse in other area (10 passes scores a point.)
Coaching points
Encourage players to communicate with one another to ensure they keep possession of the ball.
Try to get players to choose the correct pass for the situation i.e. if their is no defender between the ball and the team mate at a short distance a chest pass would be the best pass selection as it is the quickest and most direct pass.
Get your players thinking for themselves and what pass they are using!
