OFTEN USED WITH...

Chest Bounce Pass:

Step forwards with one foot.

As the weight transfers forward make a chest pass by extending your arms at chest height and bounce the ball in between you and the player to whom you are passing.

Passing Technique

Hook Pass:

Start with the ball by your him. Arc your arm up and over your shoulder. You should release the ball in front of your face for a flat pass, or further towards your shoulder for a more elevated pass.

Passing Technique

Pick up ball and Bounce Pass:

Pick up a rolling ball, feet shoulder width apart. When you pick up the ball, lead forwards with the dominant foot and as your momentum goes forwards make a bounce pass. Forward momentum gives more power.

Passing Technique

Keep ball - 4 vs 1:

Two grids of equal size both with 4 players inside.

One team starts with the ball and passes it around inside their area, trying to keep possession.

In order to steal the ball and get the ball for their team one player from the other grid is allowed to enter the opposition team's grid and chase down the ball.

When they win the ball the player plays an unopposed pass into their grid, follows their pass and then the exercise starts again.
