Set-up

Pairs pass across 15 yards — inside of foot, outside of foot, first-touch control and return. Rotate through three stations: ground pass, driven pass, aerial control. Light tempo, focus is touch not speed.

Coaching points

  • Lock the ankle, firm surface every time
  • Cushion the first touch across the body, not straight back
  • Stay on toes between touches — never flat-footed

Progressions

  • Add a third player as a wall-pass option between the pair
  • Increase distance to 25 yards and add a driven ball station
