These players will go on to have a positive impact on the game as senior players. Its your duty as a coach to make them clear the goals that need to be accomplished after their training on the basic drills has been completed. Most coaches fail to convey this message in soccer training to their players that there is much more to simply kicking the ball into the goal to become a great soccer player. Lets chat about some soccer drills which will allow your players to move up the ladder of success in the game in addition to supplementing it with a touch of enthusiasm. 1. The first and the foremost drills is the passing drills which is also the chief drill of all. Herein, there are two cones placed down about 10 yards away from one another. Then, following each cone, 5 players are lined up. Now one player from any of the rows will begin with passing the ball to another player in the opposite row. 2. Following this first pass, they will then run in the outer region of the cones. Then they would go back to the very same line to which they had previously passed the ball. Continue to do this until all your players get an opportunity to pass the ball at least a few times. 3. In your soccer practice, when you've started carrying out this drill, initially allow your players at least two touches each on the ball. Teach the players to use first and second touch to hold the ball and organize it for a pass respectively. 4. Do not forget the chief aspect of keeping the ball close to the players body after the first touch. The players must have been taught this as one of the first soccer exercises to develop the player's ability to keep control of the ball. The second touch will be used to pass the ball to the opposite line. 5. It goes a long way in teaching the young players to kick the ball using the inner side of their foot while they are still practicing to correctly pass the ball. This will help them make a smooth pass to the player in the opposite line. 6. You can advance to the next stage of the drill which requires the players to use only one touch. As such, it requires the players to pass on the ball to another player right away, the moment he gets the possession of the ball. Make no mistake about it that the players have to be very quick in moving towards the other line because it is a very fast paced drill.
