This drill involves three performers, one performer will start with the ball and the others will stand in front of each other. The performer closest to the performer with the ball just stands still, however the performer behind them will receive the ball on each side of the performer in front. This helps with coordination/agility and passing, all key components in a counter attack. This drill can be easily adaptable for example instead of the ball on the floor, the receiver can have it in the air for a volley or a header.

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.
