Coachbetter Technical Director and former English National Team (Lionesses) and Stevenage Head Coach, Mark Sampson, explains how to deliver this session to your players.
PROGRESSION I
Activity Flow
1. Start at the starting cone with a pass to your teammate
2. The teammate has two contacts - first contact controls the ball, second contact is the pass to the next teammate
3. Players follow their pass
Organization
1. Place 4 cones for orientation
2. Set up the cones in a diamond pattern
3. Adjust the distance between the cones depending on the quality and age of the players
4. Two players at the starting cone
Coaching Points
1. Scanning permanently – before the ball is coming, while the ball is traveling and after the action
2. Open position and reception of the ball in the direction of the pass
Variations
1. Change passing direction
2. Touch requirements (for example: every second pass must be played directly)
3. Progressions - Exercises 2 and 3 can be found on the platform
PROGRESSION II
Activity Flow
1. The goal is to play the ball from A to B
2. Observe the defender: where is the defender? Which passing line is open?
3. If it is possible to pass the ball directly from A to B, this option is preferred, because only one pass is necessary
4. If the defender is in the middle of the field and covers the pass from A to B, a solution via C and D must be found
5. Start at the starting cone with a pass to your teammate
6. The teammate has two contacts - first contact controls the ball, second contact is the pass to the next teammate
7. Players follow their pass
Organization
1. Place 4 cones for orientation
2. Set up the cones in a diamond pattern
