    The set up Traffic Lights Training Session Drill in Football

    A 20 by 20 yard square with each side being made up of button cones

    You will need enough footballs for each player to have one each.

    Traffic Lights Coach Football Drill– from the FA Level 1 – coach needs three button cones, one red, one yellow , one green.  The players are invited to dribble their football around the square at their own pace,  then introduce the red cone – when held up by the coach means ‘Stop with your foot on the ball’,  continue the dribbling,  introduce the Yellow cone – means ‘turn’ (or do a step over or whatever coach chooses) so when the coach holds up the yellow cone the players must turn and move in the opposite direction (you could even specify a particular type of turn here if you wanted to),  introduce the green cone – means go – i.e. accelerate forward into space so long as it is safe to do so. 

    Once the player have been briefed on the meaning of each cone its just a matter of cycling through them as you see fit.  No verbal commands from the coach just the holding up of the cones – also the coach should move positions – idea is that the players have to look up not just down at the ball.
