DFK - 'Through The Legs' Coaching Video

This series focuses on 1-v-1 drills that incorporate a range of skill-based attacking and defending scenarios for players to improve their awareness, confidence and ability.

Through The Legs

In this particular drill, one player stands on the goal line with their legs wide open. The other player passes the ball through their opponent’s legs and into the field of play. After regaining possession, the player is then tasked with scoring in the closest goal to them. If the defending player dispossesses their opponent, they have the opportunity to go 1-v-1 shooting towards the farthest goal. This drill tests reactions, agility and speed.
