Driven pass

A driven pass is a play where a player passes the ball from one player to another. It is commonly used by center backs for hitting big diagonal balls to the wingers at the other end of the field. Driven passes are also used frequently by center midfielders. They often pick up the ball in their own side and then work from the back. These players target weaker wingers to score goals.

It's easier for a team not to lose possession of the ball if they pass it backwards, rather than dribbling it. Also, it's more efficient than dribbling. It's particularly helpful when passing a ball to an outsider, as it thins your defense. It is important to remember that the reverse pass does not require you to kick the ball with your feet.

This formula allows you to determine the approximate size of the ball.
