DRIVING

Driving is defined as the action of a player moving the ball from one area of the field to another, with successive touches and maintaining control over it.

It is an important technical concept in which certain guidelines must be given in order to perform it correctly:

• short touches should be given, allowing to advance with precision.
• The outer part of the foot is usually used, since it allows us to advance faster.
• We have to try to do it with our heads held high, so as not to lose sight of the position of our rivals and colleagues.
• It should not be abused, since in principle it is a slower resource than the pass, although it is necessary in many phases of the game.

In this section you will find exercises to practice and improve the driving of your players. It is an aspect that should be trained continuously in the training stages.
