To improve how your players keep possession this plan is completely goal-less, and gets players to communicate, look up, move into space and pass more accurately.
By removing the distraction of trying to score you can get players to focus on the process goal (their passing accuracy and pass completion) and not just the outcome goal (scoring a goal).
The aim of this session isn't to get the ball to your forward players so that your team can score a goal, but for your players to be positive in their movement in order to keep the ball and score points - the more passes your players can put together, the more they'll be rewarded!
