I taught my under 10's during a practice game and said that every pass had to be a bounce pass. They pulled it off brilliantly and have been successfully using them in their games since.

Presuming you are looking for bounce pass into the shooting circle - I did this alongside work on getting attackers to dodge and come forward from the back of the circle and using C & WA to feed balls in to the forward running player using just the bounce pass. After much practice this has been evident in games but it is still not the preferred pass as they all love overheads! It may be worth a try.
