In this session filmed exclusively for CV Academy, Josh Boorn of Pro Sports Academy – a leading private football-coaching provider based in southeast England – works with an Under-14 central midfielder to develop the player’s ability to pass and receive.

The session begins with a sequence of one-touch passes and movement around a mannequin, to get the player’s feet moving. Boorn then works through progressions to the pattern, incorporating different types of passing and receiving.

In this technical session, coaching points include attention to correct body shape, type of touch, and the pass detail needed to achieve successful outcomes. Boorn also makes sure to relate the actions to match-realistic scenarios. We hope you enjoy watching!
