Soccer: Pass and pressure

What a fantastic tool. I 've found a few drills that are unfamiliar,...

Wes, Rugby Coach

DESCRIPTION

Set out grids of about 5m by 5m depending on the ability of your group (the bigger the distance between the players the easier the practice)

blue player 1 rolls or throws the ball to either red player 1 or 2.

As soon as the ball is thrown and whilst the receiving player is trying to control the ball the innitial player should challenge for the ball and try to win it back.

The receiving player has to try and pass the ballto the 3rd player on doing this. the innitial receiver becomes the next thrower.

COACHING POINTS

If the defender wins the ball back they score a point and throw again.

Pass and pressure:

Player 1 starts with the ball and passes the ball to player 2. player 1 runs after the ball to try and win the ball off player 2 (not allowed to intercept, only tackle). Player 2 has to at least play 2 touches, one to control and one pass. Every player in turn has to follow his/her own pass and stop in the position of the next player.

Passing and Receiving

Pass and Receive:

Players run diagonally up the field - passing and receiving to each player.

Passing and Receiving

Pass and Release relay:

Player 1 passes to player 2, meanwhile player 3 reacts to this pass and moves so that they're ready to receive from player 2, with their body open to the wing.

Meanwhile player 1 charges up the line, ready to receive the pass from player 3. When they receive the ball on the run they switch the ball to player 1 on the other side and the drill continues.

Passing and Receiving

Pass and Move:

Setup the practice as shown.

Split the group into two. Player 1 dribbles up to the cone before passing the ball across to player 2. Players have to make sure that they give a pass in each box (5 x 5m)
