Instructions/Setup:


In this technical ball mastery drill, players work in pairs with one ball between them. The objective is to pass through as many coloured gates as possible while moving around the grid together. Each pair must remain mobile, constantly adjusting their position and spacing to find and play accurate passes through the various gates without repetition.


This drill helps develop passing accuracy, communication, awareness, and movement off the ball, all while maintaining technical focus in a fun, competitive format.



Coaching Notes:


• Pass with precision and timing: Encourage players to focus on accurate passing with proper weight and timing to successfully play through each gate.


• Keep moving as a pair: Players should constantly move and adjust their body positions to support each other and open up new passing angles.


• Scan the field constantly: Emphasize head-up play and scanning to quickly identify which gates are free and how to position accordingly.


• Use both feet and surfaces: Encourage players to use both feet and different surfaces (inside, outside) for improved technical variety and development.



Progression 1: Add Defender in Central Area:


Introduce a passive or active defender who can intercept passes if players get too close to the middle zone.


Focus: Encourages better movement, positioning, and decision-making under pressure.
