Kids soccer drills are an important part of building a successful team. Remember that no matter what drill you're using to train your team, it's important to instill a sense of accomplishment and value to the team by giving them a taste of success every time they do a drill. Three popular and effective drills for kids soccer are the Cone Dribbling Race, the Kickball drills and Speed Passing.
Cone Dribbling Race
As the name suggests, the goal of the game is to dribble past a series of cones as quickly as possible. There are many ways to set this up. For example, you might setup ten cones, each five feet apart. There are two rows of cones and two teams. The goal is for the whole team to finish the dribble as quickly as possible. The next player cannot start until the previous player finishes. This is a great way to build dribbling skill as well as instill a sense of teamwork.
Kickball Drills
Kickball drills are a great way to build up soccer kicking skills. A Kickball is simply a ball that's tethered to your foot. You can use this to practice curve shots, power shots, goalie shots, etc without having to pick up the ball again every time. This is a great way to work on your shots and kicking skills in a short period of time. You can practice just about any type of shot with a Kickball.
Speed Passing
Speed passing is a great way to get players used to passing the ball quickly. This drill builds passing skills, attentiveness and faster reflexes. Here's the setup. It takes at least four players. Setup two sides, each with the same number of players. One player kicks off the ball to a player on the other side. The player on the other side must pass the ball quickly, touching it only once. The ball then goes back and forth as quickly as the players can go. The game can also be played in a small circle. The intention is that the passing gets faster and faster and faster over time.
These are 3 great kids soccer drills to get you started. Using the proper drills is a great way to build up a winning team.
