Passing Drills
As opposing players' defensive skills develop, the importance of well timed and well placed passes increases.
Passes should have one of the following purposes:
1. Releasing pressure by playing the ball away from the opponent
2. Moving the ball closer to the opposing goal
3. Giving the ball to a player in a better position to score
