Teaching Football Skills Passing

Teaching the Inside-of-Foot "Push" Pass 1. 2. “Square up” so player, ball and target are in a straight line. Place “plant foot” about 4 inches from the side of the ball, pointing toward the target. The direction the plant foot points is important, because that is the direction the hips will face. Try it. Or, have the player face the target and back of the ball, whichever the player prefers. Plant foot can be toward the middle. Head is over the ball, eyes looking down, both knees slightly bent.

Teach proper motion by first having the player place their striking foot flat against the back of the ball, about 5 inches above the ground, and pushing the ball toward the target, following through toward the target. This is a push and follow through, not a jab. Think of a tennis serve. However, jabbing a one-touch pass is okay. Be sure ball contact is with toes pulled up (i.e., foot parallel to the ground) and the ankle locked. Make contact with the arch, below the ankle bone, and follow through toward the target so the ball has top spin. Have player do the same, except start one step back from the ball—player, ball and target are in a straight line. This step provides power to the pass. If the pass goes into the air, it means it was struck too low.
