On the 8th day of Xmas, my football coach sent to me.... 8 V Pushes
Happy New Year to you all and we hope that it is a successful year for you all. Today's drill will help you achieve your successes.

V Pushes Develop Players Close Control Of The Ball To Be Able To Change Direction In Tight Areas & When Under Pressure
KEY COACHING POINTS
Focus on the correct technique
Practice with both feet
Increase speed as you master the technique
SET UP
Set up 2 cones 10m apart. Player starts at cone 1 with ball and begins performing skill to cone 2. When player reaches cone 2, they turn & repeat the skill back to cone 1. Repeat. (If you don't have cones any object will do)
PROGRESSIONS
1. Set realistic & challenging time limits to complete (Example: “Must complete 30 V Pushes in 60 seconds”)
2. Players challenged to perform skill whilst on the move
DETAIL
1. Sole of foot drags ball backwards
2. Inside foot pushes ball out of body to side
