Fundamentals – Triangle Passing Drill
Set Up: Two players are set up inside of the grid, working within the triangle of cones.
Procedure: During the drill, Player A serves the ball to Player B as he moves around the triangle. Player B performs the technique and makes return passes to Player A. The pattern of play varies throughout the drill (see Progressions), and the players switch places every 30-60 seconds.
Teaching Topics:
1 Verbal and visual cues.
2 Ball striking.
3 Receiving.
Progressions:
1 Double Pass, run around next cone.
2 Receive between cones, dribble around the next cone.
3 Run around cone, touch it back.
Coaching Points:
1 The receiver should make eye contact with the passer and call for every pass.
2 Strike the top half of the ball to keep it on the ground.
3 Get into the path of the ball as quickly as possible and get your feet set.
