This coaching plan improves ball control and passing accuracy, helping your players to pick out the a defence splitting pass. We also encourage players to be pass using both feet.
Being able to pass using either foot will give your players better balance, more passing options and also allow them to keep possession for longer.
What's in the session?
To improve your players' passing accuracy (using both feet) we get your players passing in pairs to one another through a pair of cones - you can make this as easy or hard as you you like, by changing the width between the cones.
After this things start to get competitive - as a result you might find some of your players starting to overweigh their passes as they practice passing (with both feet) under pressure. Don't worry about this, it's a good thing as it will stretch the opposition and bring home to your players the importance of good, accurate passes.

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
