This is a good warm-up game you can use before a training session or a match.
It is suitable for all ages of players.
Set up: divide your players into groups of five. Four players form a
semi-circle facing the fifth player and a good passing distance away.
Three of the four players have a ball. The fifth player does not
have a ball.
How to play: the fifth player receives a pass and controls it with their first touch
and passes back to a player facing her who doesn't have a ball with her
second touch. She can't pass it back to the player who passed it to her.
Key soccer coaching points:
Start slowly and focus on 100% accuracy of pass.
Look for a good first touch from the target player and that they stay on their toes.
Progression:
Move to one touch.
Increase/decrease the distance between the players.
