Objective

Close control and turning, using both feet to change direction sharply at each corner while keeping the ball tight.

Coaching points

• Small, frequent touches down each side
• Slow down into the corner, then a positive touch out of the turn
• Use both feet, and turn with the inside and the outside of the foot
• Head up to see the next cone before you get there

Progressions

• Call a specific move to use at every corner (drag-back, inside cut, outside cut)
• Make the square bigger to add pace, or smaller for tighter control
• Two boxes and race, but a clean lap only counts if every corner has a move
• Reverse direction so they turn the other way
