This practice is designed to improve the technical ability of the " Push Pass" with an emphasis on awareness of supporting players.
Divide your players into groups of fives.Position each group inside a grid, with one ball per group. Grid is approx 18 x 18 metres.
Each players has a number ( 1 to 5. The players pass the ball around the grid using "the push pass". The practice starts with # 1 passing to 2, #2 must pass to #3, #3 must pass to #4, #4 passes to # 5, #5 passes to 1. This sequence is maintained throughout the drill.Each receiving player must shout out their number to attract the attention of the passing player e.g If #1 has the ball, #2 must shout their number to attract the attention of the player.
The players should move continually around the full area of the grid, constantly adjusting their position. Players should be encouraged to look around them before they receive the pass, enabling them to identify the next passing option quickly. |
