Movement, agility and vision.

Colour react warm-up soccer drill

Colour react soccer warm-up drill

Two groups of players stand on either side of a row of four different-coloured cones, placed fives yards away.
The players react to your call and run to the appropriate cones.
The players touch the cones in the order you call out, and sprint out of the nearest end.
Players then join the opposite queue.
An example would be "white and black", as shown in the diagram. Make sure you keep advancing the soccer warm-up with
combinations of colours so your players are thinking about what they are doing.
Mix the colours around so they do not become too familiar.
