Day 2 Camp Report
 
 
Well it was another hot day on the Elite Soccer fields, as we took to the field to learn today's lessons.
 
Passing and Receiving is a major past of soccer. Not only passing and receiving but being able to use all surfaces of the foot.
 
        Passing and moving in pairs 
                Receiving in pairs
                Passing thru a gate
                Running at an angle to receive a pass
                Target Game
 
Here are the steps to pass and receiving correctly:
 
    Before the pass --- look for a target
    After you find target --- strike the ball
    Look at the target and move to a support angle
 
When receiving the pass:
   
    Create eye contact with the passer
    Use an angle run to create space
    Receive ball while facing the field
    Use all surfaces of the foot to receive the ball
    Look down after receiving the ball to get NO BOUNCE.....while the
        ball is  moving
Then look for your choice-----DRIBBLE, PASS OR SHOOT.
 
Hey Goalie camp worked on Diving and Vertical and lateral foot work.
They were all over the ground on that side of the field.
 
Coach Andre's take home point tonight was that if you can not control the ball and pass thru traffic to your team mate you can not control the game. Only by accurate passes and receiving the ball to your advantage can you move the ball with speed and determination down the field.
 

Remember LOTS of Water.....It is hot out here!
