Twos / two rows of hats / caps / ladders

  • passing between two pylons. On the whistle, sprint around the ladder
  • Carroussel: Ladders up, run back passing
  • Think about it!: Jump down, jump down, jump left, right, left!
  • Team spirit sitting side by side, arms crocheted, lying down and then doing sit ups
  • One player runs via ladder and the other throws the ball into the hands
  • One player runs through the ladder and the other throws the ball for a header
  • Short steps over the ladder, then zigzag through the pylons, there sprint to the end where there is a pylon.

passing-and-sprinting

Field setup:

  • Place 2 x 4 x 2 pilons next to each other so that two streets of pilons are formed.


The course of play:

  • The players have to try to pass exactly through the pilon street and then sprint through it after the ball. 
  • Another player (white) receives the ball and dribbles to the other street. 
  • There this player does exactly the same towards player 3.
  • Player 3 starts again on the same spot as player 1.


Laws of the Game:

  • The ball must pass through the pilon street.
  • If you hit a pilon, you have to sprint to straighten the pilon and try again.
  • The ball must pass all pilons before the receiving player can take it.



  • Pairs of two
  • One of them rolls the ball and the other passes back.
  • the passer runs back and forth between a pilon and the place of passing
  • Challenge is to play as much passes as possible in 45 seconds.
  • Two groups of players
  • 1 defender
  • The defender attacks and the attacker must try to score
  • After a shot at goal, the attacker takes over the defender's place and an attacker from the other group tries to score.
  • Again tha attacker shoots and takes the place of the defender.
  • And so on.
  • Try to keep up the pace.



drawing Shooting and defending immediately
  • Put out a square.
  • Each corner has a colour (hat, jacket, ...).
  • When jogging randomly across the field, call out colour and then sprint to the corner. 
  • Make sure you respond quickly and cleanly
  • Also pay attention to the ball and running line
drawing clean and fast
  • Defenders at first and second posts, defenders in front of the goal and catch the attackers. 
  • Attackers move forward as soon as the ball is played high.
drawing Corners
  • The following exercise contains a lot of speed, agility, coordination, passing and even duelling.
  • A speed exercise that can be done at any time of the training.
  • Any age group can do this exercise. There are enough variations possible that you can apply yourself.
  • With the younger and even the older groups the FUN aspect is also very pleasant.
  • You can apply this form of exercise to different distances. It is especially important to look at your age group and what you want to achieve.
  • Both players A leave with shoulder to shoulder until they're between the poles.
  • (1), They then accelerate around the pilon and go back to the stick
  • (2,3). Behind the stick, they go sideways over the hurdles
  • (4). Again they go behind the stick and accelerate forward to the stick that's the furthest away.
  • (5). Back to the other pole again
  • (6) to then get a ball played in from B
  • (7) on which A finishes on target
  • (8).Player who finishes first wins.
  • In the older ages you can have the loser do push-ups or do an extra job.
  • At younger ages you add up the points.
  • A takes the place of B and B goes to A.
  • As a variation, you can have players B throw up the ball so that A has to head the ball inside the goal.
  • As you can see, it is all about speed, agility and coordination
  • Whoever wins, it's always fun and hard work is done
  • Have fun with this speed exercise and let us know what you thought of it
