Passing cues:
-planting/non kicking foot next to ball, pointing at target
-strike ball with side of foot
-firm ankle
-follow through to target
-loose hips
(ensure you talk about weight of the pass and appropriate passing distance)
Warm up: Donkey Tails
then....
-pairs passing in grid, pass and then do dynamic stretches for 3 or 4 count and then receive the ball back (dribbling around while waiting for partner) while other partner does dynamic stretches for 3 or 4 count. Also work on calling. Move to passing and then cutting around a cone on the outside of grid and then receiving pass from partner. Work on change of pace and nice firm passes around grid. (Work on both feet!!)
Game: end zone soccer but you have to pass to a team mate in the end zone to score.....need to make it harder, make two goals in the corners and they have to pass through the goals.
Passing and Receiving Triangles
Simple drill passing and following your pass. Working on receiving with one foot and passing with the other.
Just watch video to get idea of pattern of drill...

Passing - with feeders
20x20/15x15 grid. Put half the kids in pinnies (they are the feeders to start) and have feeders spread out around the grid. The other kids are receivers, they cut to a ball and call for a pass, receive pass and pass it back to feeder, then cut to a new ball. (good time to talk about weight of pass and appropriate passing distance (DEMO this)). Then switch the feeders and the receivers.
Passing with gates/arches
Gates allow you to adjust the size
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pRJPd0FfuI (again video reviews coaching points)
Grid with arches/mini goals. Pairs - one ball between two, one dribbling around grid, one following, when coach says passes, pairs find a mini goal or arch and do passes through the gates. (coach can say a number or just have them pass until you say dribble again.
Move to (take arches/gates out) and have one partner (one without ball) run around a cone on the outside and then call for ball and receive a pass then the partner that just passed runs around a different cone and receives a pass etc....
Passing under pressure. 15x15 grid, one player at each corner, one offence and defence in the middle, the offensive player must receive and play a pass to each player on the outside while keeping from being intercepted b defender, as in video but all service is on the ground.

need to take it back a notch, play 3v1 in a grid, if D gets ball, then two of their team mates come in and play 3 v 1 against the other D, or play 4v1 continuous, where if D intercepts or gets the ball they pass to their team mates in the other grid or the coach plays ball into grid two for that D's team mates to play and one of the opposing team comes in as the defender, always switching the defender. Goal of game is to maintain possession!
need even more basic:
passing around square working on opening up and good first touch play where players are on outside of cones in grid, the cones being defenders...gradually add a live defender and move inside the square.
Game: two teams, two goals, just the game
