This is a great opportunity to encourage players to really increase their ball pace and to get used to really delivering their passes with some pace. The session finished with a conditioned game that encourages and rewards players to switch the play and attack the flanks.
Switching the play at pace is a vital part of the game. Get it nailed down and begin to toy with your oppositions press now!
