Soccer warm up for left and right foot passing

Encourage your young soccer (football) players to practise their passing skills using both their left and right foot. This soccer warm-up drill is a good one to use just before a match.

Soccer drill to get players passing with right or left foot

Before a match kicks off, I get my young soccer players to pair up and pass the ball to each other. What I'm looking for in this soccer drill is to see them passing the ball with each foot.

Being able to use either foot to pass well is not something that comes naturally to most young players, but if you warm them up so they are using both feet, the chances are that when called on in the match to clear the ball or score a goal with their weaker foot they'll do it.
