Movement Before Receiving

Setup

You will require: 8 balls / 24 cones, Set up a gate of two cones, then a line of 4 cones to create 3 gate 3 meters away, Defender to stand in the single gate, receiver to stand on the middle gate of the line, passer to start 5 meters away on the other side

How it works

When the receiver wants the ball they move towards the defender first, then the receiver makes a second run to one of the gates, The passer plays a 1-2 with the receiver, defender must try to intercept the pass, rinse and repeat

Coaching points

• Double run
• Play quick
• One touch
• Press quickly
• Weight of pass

Progressions

progression: The initial passer creates a run so that when he receives the ball he runs through another gate regression: Defender can only press and not tackle
