Grip - hand back of the ball, fingers apart.
Pass - finish with hand pointing at target, Do not force spin - let the ball roll off the fingers, Ball on hip - do not swing the ball - powerful motion from hip.
2. Side on: one hand
Grip: same as above
Pass: same as above: use the non passing hand as an aim point and pass.
3. One step: two hands
Step: Step with the outside foot (if step on inside will block the pass - more difficult)
Grip:same as above, other hand just guides the pass same hand position, ball on hip. (the non power hand is a guidence - shouldnt add any power or spin)
Pass: same as aobove but bow follow the pass, this will add power and accuracy. Over exagerate the finish with hands pointing at the target.
Full process: catch pass --> head turns --> stay square --> ball on hip --> hands finish at target.
