Soccer Exercise
Passing: Improving the Timing
- Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
- Training Set Progression
- Number of Players 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players, 16-22+ players
Setup
Pitch: 16 cones mark out four squares.
Equipment: 16 cones and several balls.
Procedure
- The ball starts in one square and is played from there into the next square.
- The receiver is outside the square and runs into the ball in order to take it on with one touch in the new direction of play.
- The ball is then passed into the next area; the drill continues as a continuous passing sequence.
- The players follow the pass they have played at speed.
Variations: With more than eight players, two balls can be in play at the same time. The tempo is then taken down a little and attention is paid to playing at the same time.
Tip
- Both touches — taking the ball on and passing — are carried out with the outside foot.
- Pay attention to the timing of the receivers: they should take the ball on in their stride and not come to a standstill in the area.
