3v1 Passing
Players Required:4
Balls Required:1
Goals Required:0
Set Up:
Two players are 1v1 on a narrow field, with two neutral attackers playing along the end lines. Attacking players score by moving the ball from one end line to the other - receiving from one neutral and then completing a pass to the other neutral. Neutrals may pass to each other, but no points are scored for those passes. As the game progresses, limits can be placed on the number of touches made by the neutrals.
Coaching Points:
1. Play the ball backwards as opposed to turning right into the defender.
2. To get open, check away from the intended pass and then check back to the ball.
3. Direct your first touch away from the defender and turn on him if he comes charging in.
Progressions:
1. Progress to 2v2 plus two.
