Support and Pass
OBJECTIVE:
To practise passing and picking up the ball.
EQUIPMENT:
One ball per group.
GROUP SIZE:
Three players per group.
AREA:
Small.
DRILL SET-UP:
Three players standing in line.
DRILL EXPLANATION:
- The first player runs out and places the ball on the ground and then turns and becomes a defender.
- The other two players follow, one behind the other as attackers.
- The front person of the attackers picks up the ball and draws and passes to the support player who should have moved into space.
COACHING POINTS:
• Players should concentrate on creating space, timing the pass and communication i.e. calling when and where they want the ball e.g. “pop left”.
