1v1 Duel: Working on Footwork and Balance (U14)
1v1 Duel Exercise with Gate Passing: Ideal for working on footwork, balance, and defensive technique.
On a half field, position your players as shown in the animation below. Then, you will animate several variations without changing the placement of the cones.
- Without the ball: the blue player must pass between the 2 gates defended by the yellow player without being touched.
- With the ball: you make a pass to the yellow player who must pass through one of the 2 gates. If the blue player recovers the ball, they will in turn try to pass through one of the 2 gates defended by the yellow player.
- Add to these first 2 variations a follow-up shot.
Remember to limit the duration of each passage to 10-12 seconds to avoid downtime. Regarding your defenders, emphasize the body position to avoid being easily bypassed.
