A short spoken walk-through of this drill.

Goal
Complete 20 consecutive passes with accuracy and control using only the weak foot.
Setup
Place two cones 5 yards apart. One player stands at each cone facing their partner.
Drill Instructions
1. Player A passes the ball using only the inside of their weak foot. 2. Player B receives the ball with the inside of their weak foot. 3. Player B takes a touch to set themselves and returns the pass using the same foot. 4. Continue the cycle without switching to the dominant foot.
Coach Tip
Check your plant foot; it should point exactly where you want the ball to go.
Avoid
Avoid 'cheating' by using the dominant foot to control the ball before passing.
Adjust on the fly
Make it easier
Shorten the distance to 3 yards and use a larger ball or a slightly deflated ball for easier control.
Make it harder
Increase the distance to 10 yards or require a one-touch return pass.
