U8 Soccer Drills and Games

Building on the development work done at Under 7, at U8 soccer players will be able to kick a ball at a variety of levels and will have knowledge of other techniques like goal kicks and throw-ins.

 

We can begin to introduce more complex skills and techniques while greatly improving the distance and accuracy of basic passing and shooting.
