Soccer or football drills are nothing but a well developed program to improve the skills of the team and the individual's while competing at all levels. Carrying out these drills to perfection during the match is what separates the men from the boys. Here's a look at some of the drills or exercise coaches from around the world employ:
DRILL 1: Defender without Opposition -
Foot Ball Drills
This drill is used to teach players to defend when they are near the opponent with ball moving aggressively towards their goal.
You will need two defenders and two players with the ball. Each defender starts from the outside of the penalty box towards the opponent. Make sure that both, the defenders and the attacker, move fast towards each other. Repeat the exercise at least 7-8 times with each player so that they gain confidence while approaching the opponent during the match.
DRILL 2: Winger versus Fullback
This exercise focuses on winger attacking with the ball on the opponent's half with fullback approaching.
Set the field with six attackers and six defenders along with a goal keeper. Mark off a lane that is 15 yards wide from both the side lanes. Now start with left winger on the left and right winger on the right lane with the balls and the fullbacks charging towards them. The wingers play one on one with the aim of dodging the defenders down the side line. Once he beats the defender, he can now approach the central defenders near the penalty area.
DRILL 3: The Circular Passing Game
This is a popular passing game. Players stand near the edge of the circle with two players stand in the middle. The players in the middle act as defenders. The purpose of the players standing near the circle is to keep the ball in play without losing it to the defenders. If the ball goes out to the defender or outside the circle, then the player that made the pass would replace the defender and the defender would take his position. The attacking player can move while passing or receiving the ball. You can make the circle smaller to increase the difficulty level. Accurate passing, ball control and good communication skills are developed through this drill.
DRILL 4: Shooting Indoors
This shooting drill is used while training indoors. Cones are placed on the side lines. With goal keepers on each side of the half, the attacker's aim is to dribble pass all the cones and then take a shoot from the edge of the penalty box. Ball control, dribbling skill and shooting skills are put on test through this drill exercise.
