Passing Arcs Foundation

Obj: Inside-of-foot passing quality with both feet — the club's first passing session. Field: 15×10yd per pair. Equip: Ball per pair, cones, gate cones. Org: Pairs pass through a 2yd central gate: block 1 stationary (alternating feet by rule — call your foot before striking), block 2 receiver moves to a new angle after each pass (passer must adjust), block 3 "arc walk" — pairs orbit the gate passing on the move. CP: (1) Ankle locked, toe up, strike the middle of the ball; (2) plant foot points at the target; (3) firm passes — "pass like you mean it" (weight is taught from day one). Prog: One-touch returns; distance grows; two-gate choice. Reg: Bigger gate, closer distance, stop-then-pass. Mist: P: toe-poking or scooping; C: static lines for 10 minutes — movement enters by block 2. Time: 12 min. Out: 60+ quality passes per player, half weak-footed. Var: Points race per gate completion; "hot potato" speed round. Diag: Pairs facing across a cone gate, arc arrows showing orbital movement.
