Position the players in a circle and give them one or two balls to start. Players will pass the ball around in a circle, while the coach after sometime will keep giving them more and more balls until they miss a pass. When they turnover the ball, change the direction of the pass. Try to get them as many balls passing around at the same time as possible.
Coaching Point:
- Make sure they pass using a correct tehnique.
- Use different passes to make it more fun.
- Change direction on the whistle to make it more difficult.
- Make sure they move their head fast to see where they pass and where they recieve the ball from.
