Give-and-Go
(Soccer Drill)

Purpose: 
To develop quick one-two passing and controlling skills.

Procedure:
Use an area approximately 25X15 yards. Six players stand outside the rectangle and two inside it, one as a 'give-and-go' player with a ball and the other acting as a defender to intercept the ball. The attacker can screen the ball and pass it to any of the six players situated outside the rectangle, looking for a quick return pass to go past the defender. The six players can pass the ball among each other but should take the chance to pass the ball to the player inside the rectangle whenever possible. They 're also limited to one or two touch soccer. The game is physically strenuous and for this reason the two players inside the area should be changed over at regular intervals.

Development:
(a) Count the number of successful 'give-and-go' passes in the allotted time period. 
(b) The players can be limited to two, or even one touch play.
