Passing drills
5 drills that build passing, each with step-by-step instructions and 5 with video.
Driven Long Pass
The driven ball — a low, firm pass struck with the laces — is how you switch play or hit a teammate forty yards away, and it trains the technique behind a hard, accurate shot too.
Passing Gates
Passing through small cone gates at distance sharpens the accuracy and weight of pass needed to thread the ball to a teammate's feet under pressure.
Pass & Move
Passing and immediately sprinting to a new position trains the give-and-go habit that keeps the ball moving and gets you free for the return — the engine of team play.
Throw, Trap & Return
Cushioning a thrown or dropping ball and returning it cleanly trains the aerial first touch that turns awkward bouncing balls into controlled, usable possession.
Wall Pass Reps
Passing against a wall and controlling the rebound is the fastest way to groove a crisp inside-foot pass and a clean first touch — the two things you do most in a game.
