Idea of this drill is to speed up players thought process and passing.
The two red players in the grid will recieve a pass from the blue and pass directly back before spinning and recieving(then passing back) to the opposite blue player.
The two blue players will be receiving back the pass moving the ball to the second red player and repeat
good first touch needed to next target followed with quick accurate and weighted pass.
Get head up to concentrate on both balls, dont pass until reciever ready.
Good communication
use both feet to help speed. Switch direction to encourage use of weaker foot

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
