Sole-Roll Square — Pull, Push and Escape
Players manipulate the ball inside a small square using sole rolls and pull-push touches before escaping through a free side at speed.
Save time planning sessions with FUTNIVO.
Organization
Create several 6x6m squares. One player works with a ball in each square while teammates wait outside. Players complete controlled sole actions, then accelerate out through a called or self-selected side and rotate.
Coaching Points
Keep the ball close under the body | Use the sole softly and repeatedly | Scan before choosing the exit | Push the ball into space before accelerating | Use both feet
