Passing Triangle:

3 players stand around 3 metres apart from one another with one ball between them.

They can pass in either direction and should start with two touch football, using strong side footed passes.

After a few minutes you can introduce a one touch rule to encourage players to think about where they are going to pass before they even receive the ball.

Passing and Receiving

Quickfire:

2 players face each other 10m apart.

1 ball per pair. The players pass the ball to each other using the instep pass, and with each pass take a step closer.

Passing and Receiving

Receiving with the chest:

In pairs one player throws and catches the ball the other player receives the ball with his chest and plays the ball back on the volley

Technique video

Power Ball:

Group players in pairs, facing each other 5 yards apart.

The player in possession rolls the ball to the side of his partner to demonstrate how much harder a ball is to stop when it travels along the ground. Once familiar with this knowledge, players must attempt to shoot their balls past their partners. Partners must attempt to stop or save the balls. Repeat and rotate.
