Attacking Soccer Drills

Attacking play is a key feature of your tactics, formation, and style of play. Why, when, and how is what you as a coach must concentrate on when preparing your team for attacking play. The elements of possession, position and pressing should come into your coaching strategy.

Using the attacking soccer drills in this section will help your team to capitalise on the chances they create through possession, position and pressing.

Soccer Coaching Tips

Coach your players to pass the ball forward to a teammate at every opportunity.

When your team is attacking tell them to use one and two-touch passing for fast attacking play.

As a challenge at training don't allow players to pass to the player who gave it to them.
