Move your start position later on, to a throw out from the gk to either the striker or midfield player - so that you are in the final third and can work on combination play with the three attacking players.
One of my KF's was minimum touches - if you see anyone go on a 6,7,8 touch run out to the wing, bring it back and suggest a pass. Remember, it is improving quick play, not forward passing, so often a pass behind to the full backs is the best option.

Be honest and analyse how much quick play has actually improved. I kept commenting on how fast we were moving up the pitch - 2/3 seconds to get from gk to the final third.

Best bit of advice from my assessor? Coach the faults. If you see a mistake, freeze play and sort it out immediately.

Practice it, see what you think works.
Come back for more when you have tried it.
This is key -- teach to your subject. If the topic is quick play in the back, make sure it is quick play, even if the best play, or the play you'd most want for your team, is the attack up the wing.
