Your players work hard to get the ball but then they struggle to keep possession so they don't get the opportunity to score!

What?s in the Session?
After a fun competitive warm up we go back to basics with practicing different types of passes that can be used to get around a defender?s 3ft mark. Then two split lead drills make sure your players know how to get into space and avoid having a defender between them and the ball.

All of this leaves your players with the skills they need to maintain possession and control the game when it could get away from you.
