The player in the centre needs good body position to receive and know where the teammate is to pass to. A side on position so he/she can see both players is vital

Players need to be controlling the ball with one touch then turning and making an accurate pass with the other foot. The most accurate pass will be with the side foot after making the turn from a good first touch.

It is important to make sure when the players are attacking their body is positioned so they are balanced and facing the goal ready to receive and when shooting the supporting foot should be next to the ball and players should not be leaning back when they shoot.

Pay attention to the passes and the speed which the ball circulates at. Never lose control over the speed of the ball, speed up or slow down the ball’s speed.

The nearest pressing player goes to press and the second presser cover and anticipates the pass. Good movement to force passes and get the passing players making mistakes.
