Passing in a Box with Combinations Variation I

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
  • Training Set Progression, Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players

Setup

6 cones are laid out as shown, i.e. 4 cones make up the outer box in which 2 further cones are placed. One player per cone. The start cone must have 2 players.

Procedure

The drill starts at the cone with 2 players. The first pass is in the middle, where the ball is laid off (2).

Then the ball is passed cross-field (3). After that the player passes a square ball (4).

The same sequence now takes place in the opposite direction (5-8). The 4 outer players follow their passes. The two players in the middle move diagonally after their pass to the outer cone (red dotted line).

Tip

- 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.
