U7s is telling the players to pass pass pass not the right thing to do?

I tell my players to pass pass pass and that passing is as good as scoring. I want to see this in games, so I do a lot of passing drills and Rondo drills in training, I try not to neglect skills (mastering the ball etc) and ball control, but should I just be concentrating on the individual getting better with running with the ball and skills to get themselves past players and out of trouble i.e. congested area of the pitch?

  • Hi Andrew,

    I wonder if the players could pass as good on strength and accuracy.

    For me, I always ask them ‘what is your decision?’ or ‘do you have better ideas?’ to instead of pass.

    I think the individual skills are more important at that ages. The other That really vital is let the players to understand why we need to pass, not only for passing.

    Any ideas?
