Decision Making

Four players are used in a 10 x 10 grid, using one football. The exercise is to improve players on decision making.
  • Player A passes to player B.
  • Player B passes it back with one touch if possible.
  • On the pass back from B player D moves into the centre of the grid.
  • Player A plays a 1 - 2 with player C to get to D position.
  • Player D then takes up the position of A.
  • Player A then passes the ball to player C, who continues the exercise by passing to player B (in Red)
  • Centre player will then replace C and the drill will start from player A again.
Focus on:
  • Quality of pass.
  • Move the ball one touch if possible.
  • Decision of player who moves, either play a 1 - 2 or dribble. Be aware of position of D.
  • Communication.

Variation:

  • Player either plays a 1 - 2 or dribbles to position (Red line is showing that the player has decided to dribble)
