Drill Variations
  • Play in two-touch passes for beginners.
  • Follow this drill up with: One-Touch Passing Combination with a Dribble; Series 2
Drill Coaching Points
  • Passes must be precise and to the feet of the receiving player.
  • Good movement off the ball to create space and time the passes.
  • Play in one-touch if possible. Slowing the drill to two-touches will allow players to get familiar with the pattern, and pace of the passes.
  • If a bad pass is given, adjust accordingly and continue the drill.
