Soccer drill: pass form open

Suitable for the following techniques: passing

Pass form open

1st exercise:
  • Player A plays the ball in to B and runs to B's position.
  • Player B stands open turned, takes it and passes it to Player C and so on.

  • Point of attention playing in:
    • the ball must be hit in the middle so that it stays low.
    • The correct technique for this is to lift your shooting leg slightly.
  • Passing point:
    • The player who accepts the ball should not be facing the ball with his or her body, but turned "open". You create this by positioning your body towards the player you are passing to and with your eyes on the ball.
    • Playing around clockwise, the ball is taken on with the left and I play on with the right.
    • In the other direction take on with the right and play on with the left.
    • If you notice it's too easy, first increase the pace. Then to make it more difficult you can take out the assumption and they have to pass the ball directly.
2nd exercise:
  • Player B asks for the ball.
  • Player A plays into player B.
  • Then B then drops the ball to player A after which he passes it back to player C.
  • Player C then drops it to player B and then player B plays it diagonally to player D and so on.
Points of attention:
  • The player who plays the ball in must move on after the play-in so that he can ask for the ball, in the middle, between the pawns
  • Not further because then the effect is gone with the cross pass.
  • The player who rebounds runs around his own pawn to ask for the ball again in the middle.
  • This player must make the correct turn when rebounding so that he keeps his eyes on the ball.
  • His turn should be short toward the box and not off the play.
In both drills after 8 minutes, change directions of play.
Clockwise passes with right leg, counterclockwise passes with left leg.
