Passing in a Box with Options I

Two triangles are set up next to one another. A players starts at each cone. Two players start at the start position.

Player D starts with a corss-field pass to A and then runs to cone VI. Player A plays a one-two with B and takes up his position at cone IV. B runs to cone V. Player C passes the ball (5) on to player F and runs to cone III. F then plays a one-teo with D. The sequence of passes and runs contiuously repeats itself so that in the process every player takes up every position.

- 6 cones.

- This drill is very tiring and requires a great deal of player intelligence.

- The standing leg is often too far away from the ball and/or the player leans back.

- Timing of the pass is important.

- Don't forget the runs.

- Demand good strength of pass and pass precision.

- Pass precision is more important than pass speed.

- Concentration must be held at all times.

- Anticipation, awareness, reaction, speed of thought and movement with and without the ball are continuously required.

20 x 20 Meters
