I dont actually use all that many drills - finding that conditioning games are more enjoyable, and more productive. However, sometimes drills are essential to work on specific elements. Over time, we have found those that work and those that don't, and have kept to a number of tried and tested ones. The kids seem to like this, and it means that you can build and highlight new things each time you use them. Unless the description says otherwise, these are suitable for all ages - you need to judge your kids. Of course, aswell as these drills, time can usefully be spent practicing corners to establish both attacking and defensive position, practicing free kicks (again, for positioning and following in shots), ball skills and other specific elements. Again, you need to determine what your kids need to work on. The drill decriptions are presented in the frame further down this page.
