RONDO SOCCER DRILL
This rondo soccer drill is the rondo at its simplest. This rondo game is great as a warm-up drill to a game, or a drill for your practice session.
Drill setup- Create a 12x12 grid.
- Position two defenders inside the grid.
- Position the remaining players evenly spaced out around the outside of the grid.
- The players outside the grid start with a pass to any of the players on the outside of the grid.
- The outside players attempt to remain in possession without letting the defenders win the ball.
- The defensive players try to cut off passing lanes and win possession of the ball.
- If possession is lost, whether to a defensive player, a bad pass, or a bad touch, the player making the mistake switches roles with one of the defenders.
- Players should switch fast, and the game should not stop for long.
- Limit the defensive side to 1 player for a lower skill level.
- Shrink the playing area for more skilled players.
- Limit touches to 1-touch.

- Receiving players must learn how to react to handle all types of balls played to them.
- Players should think ahead of the play and be ready to play immediately.
