We’ll set up 4-5 sets of three dots spaced 8-10 yds apart in a straight line across the turf (16-20 yds total). for Drill 1 we’ll add 2 sm. cones on either side of the center dot, and for Drill 2 we’ll remove those cones and just use the dots.

Drill 1: Passing Activation w/Half-Turns (15 mins) WITH SHOULDER CHECKS

Groups of 4-6

• In this drill we are focusing just on the execution fundamentals. Snappy runs, passes and half turn.
• IMPORTANT: Central runner: check your shoulder (1) as you approach the center, (2) immediately after you return the one-time pass (and before/as youare making your move)
• This is an example of “encoding” a habit, or skill. In moments when you’ve controlled the ball or you know what the ball is doing, you can sneak a peak to other areas not in your view. Here we are simulating shoulder checks as part of this technical drill. This is slowly building the habit in prescribed moments.
