Awareness is a key factor in this drill with players scanning to see where the space is and which goals are being covered.

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.

Try to move the ball quickly, using a maximum of one or two touches. Try to get players to use one touch passing and only to depend on a second touch when they have to control a poor pass. Timing of the pass is key to how the player receives the ball whether a through ball for the player to run on to or a switch of play. Although the pass is being played to the player facing you, the pass should be firm and played with some pace. Controlling the ball properly can help to open up an angle to shoot on goal.

Speed of play is important for receiving and passing. Good passing helps players to control the ball and make decisions easier. Players should try to finish by taking into account the goalkeeper's position and the best place to put the ball.
