Skill: SH Pass (one side)

Drill

Player 'A' working, players X & Y feeding balls. X & Y stand facing the same direction & slightly staggered (preferably facing each other).

Player 'A' receives ball from X & passes to Y, then he runs around the back of Y to receive the ball facing Y, which he passes to X (repeat - 1 min drill).

SH Pass

Key Factors:

  • Narrow base (quick feet), 'skip in' if possible.
  • Wrist pass, momentum and follow pass.
  • "Trap" a moving ball with "lead" hand.

Variations:

  • 'X' & 'Y' deliver ball in the hands & on the ground.

Overload:

  • Increase distance 8m to 10m to 12m to 14m.
  • Awkward delivery of ball.

Groups:

Minimum of 3 players.
