Quick Feet To Finish | Technical (104-P1)
Organisation / Set Up
Practice 1 of Theme 104 Quick Feet to Finish has a physical focus and can be applied during pre-season or throughout the year. Working individually, a single player must perform forward and backwards shuttle runs between cones spaced 2 yards apart, before receiving a pass from the coach as shown.
Continued..
The player must position themselves at an angle to be able to take their first touch behind the mannequin to run onto, before playing a pass to a waiting player between 2 poles positioned 2 yards apart. They must then turn to receive a second pass off either a coach or fellow player and play a bounce pass off a rebound board (or a player if a board is unavailable). To finish the exercise, they must take a strong touch through cones to finish in a 1 v 1 against the goalkeeper. Active player then becomes a support player for the next rotation.
