Before the ball gets to you, look up. Know where the space is, where your teammates are, and who is closest to you — then you can play your first touch with a plan instead of a panic.

- Who is closest to you?

What: Ball at your feet against a wall. Before every touch, look over one shoulder, then the other. Pass, repeat.
