Through the Tunnel

.
 

Objective of the Practice:
This practice is designed to improve the correct mechanics involved in the execution of the “Push Pass" with an emphasis on accuracy.

Field Preparation:
Area 20 x 20 yards. 2 players. 1 ball. Cones.

Coaching Points:
Two players are positioned in a grid 20 yards x 20 yards. One player presents himself as a target by making a
tunnel with their legs. The second player has to try and pass the ball through the tunnel. The distance should be
10 yards at first and increased to make practice more challenging. 

The coach should emphasize the following coaching points: 

  • Develop a feel for the correct pace in which you need to pass the ball.

  • Concentrate on making the pass accurate.

The first player to get the ball through the tunnel 5 times wins.

Rotate so different players compete against each other.
