Passing, Following and Seeing Space

By Lawrence Fine, Author of the FineSoccer Coaching Bible.

Welcome to the FineSoccer Drills Newsletter. Today’s featured activity works on passing, following the pass and seeing space.

Start with 5 players in a circle (you can use the center circle of a field for spacing purposes. There is one ball.

The player with the ball passes to any of the other players and then sprints right at him.

The receiving player takes a touch away from pressure and then passes to another player.

drills264c

The passer always follows the pass and takes the spot of the receiver (who then becomes the next passer).

Do this for 2 minutes and then add 2 more players and a second ball.

drills264d

Both balls are going at the same time and again, it’s pass, follow your pass and then next player finds a player to pass to.

Do this for 2 minutes and then, if you think the players are ready, add 2 more players and a third ball.

This is a great warm up to work on passing, sprinting after the pass, receiving and finding space.

Have a great day!
