Under 8 Drill - "Crush The Snow Cone"


This is a passing drill with emphasis on hitting a target under pressure.

Organization:
  1. Teams are split into two teams. For this example, a red and a yellow team.
  2. The yellow team has to keep possession of the two soccer balls that are in the field of play and hit the balls off the cones.
  3. The red team has to defend and not allow them to strike the ball off of the cones.

Coaching Points:

  1. Keep your head up to see where the snow cones are not defended.
  2. Use either the laces or the side of the foot to knock ball off of the cone.
  3. If the cone is defended dribble off to find the open cone.
