Passing Variation I
-
Organisation
Set up the hexagon as shown. One player per cone, apart from the first cone which is occupied by more than one player. The ball starts here. -
Process
Player A starts the drill with a diagonal pass to player C. He lays the ball off to player B who then plays a cross-field pass to D. Player D also hists a cross-field ball to player F who lays the ball off to player E. The drill ends with adiagonal pass from E to G. The sequence then starts a new in the same fashion. The players all move on one cone clockwise after their passes to take up their new positions. The corss-field ball can be hit on the ground or in the air. Alternative: Change direction after 4 sets. -
Tip
6 cones, - The receiver should always make a small, dynamic dummy run away from or to the side of the ball before receiving the ball. - Hard, precise passes on the ground. - When laying the ball off, lightly raise the foot. - If the corss-field pass is played in the air, then the receiver must be able to lay the ball off with his first touch. I.e. The ball is hit precisely, not too hard no higher than the receiver's chest. - Communication. - Correct pass timing and tming of the dummy run away from the pass. -
