SOCCER DIAMOND PASSING COMBINATION
This soccer passing drill focuses on quick ball movement and combinations to clean up first touch and tight passing.
Drill setup- Set up 4 cones in the shape of an elongated diamond.
- Assign an all-time passer on each of the two cones where the points of the diamond are closest.
- Rotate these passers every 3-5 minutes. In our diagram, the passers are in red.
- Have the first player in line pass to one of the passers and overlap them.
- The passer that receives the first pass plays a first time ball into the other passer who then returns the ball to the player overlapping.
- The player then plays into the next player in line and the pattern repeats going the other direction.
- Play every pass 1-touch.
- Expand the distance between cones and play longer balls in the air.
