A short spoken walk-through of this drill.
Goal
Keep the ball close and under control within one step after the first touch.
Setup
Stand 3-5 yards away from a wall or partner. Place two cones 3 yards apart as a starting gate if desired.
Drill Instructions
1. Pass the ball against the wall at medium pace using the inside of your foot. 2. As the ball returns, use the outside of the same foot to take a directional touch to the side. 3. Reset and repeat the process, alternating between your left and right foot.
Coach Tip
Keep your ankle locked and 'cushion' the ball by pulling your foot back slightly on impact.
Avoid
Letting the ball bounce off your foot too far, which usually happens from a stiff leg.
