This document provides instructions for a practice drill focusing on controlling and passing the ball in a 1v1 situation. The drill involves players passing to receivers in a gridded area. Receivers practice controlling the ball with an open body position and passing to another player in the end zone. Coaches should emphasize using space, maintaining an open body shape, controlling the ball with the first touch, and passing accurately to the far player. The goal is for players to work on controlling possession against pressure from a defender.
