I have found that I can work on 3 aspects of the game with this drill...#1.Cardio, it’s full field, therefore my players are running; a lot. #2 Shooting, I added a shot on both ends... goalies and shooters get practice... and of course #3, the passing improves. The reason why I found this drill was because my players were having a heck of a time with passing on the run. We play a motion offense so this is obviously a much needed skill. Each week I see a lot of improvement. My advanced players are trying the unconventional methods introduced in this video and the other kids are really pushing themselves. I can’t really say enough about this drill.. thanks again.
I'm glad that you've found success with it. It definitely helps to get a ton of touches everyday! You're very welcome, I'm just passing on information that I've received from a plethora of other coaches!
Excellent attention to detail in this drill. I have a young high school team that needs lots of stickwork. Not only a great series of drills, but excellent teaching of techniques.
u mentioned adding flips, or other advanced versions of partner passing, can u explain on how to do picks or slips while doing these 2v0 drills. great series, love ur vids
What's up Henry, to add in flips or picks and rolls, you need to have the players cross one another on the inside of the drill. The toughest part of adding picks or flips is ensuring that as players cross that they separate far enough apart after executing the first flip or pick so that they are ready for the second. The main rule that I always place in these drills is that there must be three total exchanges before executing the next pick or flip and the players must can't switch sides once they reach one end of the drill. Another big key is making sure to include an imaginary or actual goal, so the players have a reference point and can determine who should be closer or farther from the "goal". I always act like the goal is on the opposite end of the drill. For instance, when executing a pick and slip: 1) the players will come together, execute the pick roll with the ball carrier closer to the beginning of the drill (Opposite for Flips). 2) The ball carrier will pass to the rolling player. 3) The slipping player will pass back to the original ball carrier. 4) The original ball carrier will pass back to the picking player. 5) The players will repeat in the opposite direction in the opposite roles. 5) Once the players reach the other end, they must stay on the side that they ended on. These rules ensure that players are learning flips and picks from both directions and using both hands. I'm glad you like the content! Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
