Ball Control, Dribbling and Switching Skills Session

What good is an accurately played long pass if the receiving player isn't able to control it? To make sure long balls don't go bouncing out into touch this week's Sportplan Session looks at a variety of key control skills for your players including:

  • First time passing with soft feet,
  • Running with the ball and
  • Switching the ball with a long pass and receiving the pass under control!

Last week AC Milan's Ronaldhinho demonstrated how the ability to control even the most challenging of balls can help give your side the advantage - After skilfully plucking the high ball out of the air he used the time he had gained to dribble round his man and pick out a pass which lead to an attacking opportunity

Designed for all ages and abilities, this session can easily be adapted to suit your players' skill level - with younger players reduce the size of the grids and with more able players why not challenge them to play pin-point passes across long distances!

Work on their touch and give them more time on the ball!
