Hey guys I help coach a high school team and I'm trying to find some decent drills that help with your touch.  It's easy to obviously just have them pair up and toss the ball, take a touch and pass it back, but I was looking for something a bit more effective. Thanks

Haha I like it.  Bit advanced but I do like it.

High school in the states- 9th-12th grade.  They have football teams at the school.

Let them play three touch football meaning each player can only touch the ball three times while in possession.  (ie trap the ball, take a touch and then pass it to a team mate. The fouth touch becomes a foul for the other team). It can be played as a regular game, at their age they should be able to handle it. Be advised that players that like to dribble hate this drill. As they get better you can try two touch.
