The beginner player tends to play with their head down, looking at the ball, and so is rarely able to look for a teammate before passing. The player usually uses the toe or awkwardly tries to pass with the inside of the foot. A player at this level can kick successfully in the correct general direction, but rarely to a teammate.
□ Always begin teaching passing with the side of the foot first.
□ Have the receiver stand close, then as the passing gets better, move further away.
□ The inside of the foot can be used for short push passes. The ball is struck firmly, with the foot following through in the direction of the intended receiver.
