Passing and Receiving

This practice drill focuses on possession play and passing between attackers and target players. The area is divided into squares with attackers and defenders in each half, and target players on the outside. The attackers must keep possession in their area while looking for opportunities to pass to the target players on the outside. The objective is to maintain possession while transferring the ball to the target players. As the players progress, the target players will become defenders and vice versa to change the practice.
