Hi Amelia. To make the "Criss-Cross Pass - Land on outside foot" drill easier, you could consider the following modifications:

  1. Simplify Movements: Reduce the complexity by having players start at a slower pace. Allow them to walk through the movements to build confidence and understanding of the footwork.
  2. Reduce Intensity: Limit the number of repetitions initially to prevent fatigue, allowing players to concentrate on technique rather than speed.
  3. Focus on Footwork: Allow players to practice landing on their outside foot in isolation before integrating it into the full drill. This can help them get comfortable with the specific movement.
  4. Use Visual Aids: Mark specific landing and pivot points on the ground with cones or markers. This visual guidance can help players understand where they need to position themselves.
  5. Pair-up Practice: Let players work in pairs where one observes and provides feedback to the other, helping each other understand what adjustments need to be made.
