Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Free Kicks

Defending Wall

THERE IS OFFSIDES FOR FREE KICKS. Every player marks up and stays up to pull attackers away from goal. Must be physical and block lanes. Create offsides problem fo attackers.

On INDIRECT KICK, one player in wall attacks ball as soon as touched.

One person in wall turns around to face keeper and follows keepers instructions to line wall up. Once lined up turn back around to face ball. Keeper will call for how many in wall. 3 for most, 4 when on penalty box. 2 a little farthe out.

Need striker up top to get pass for counter attack.

Look for short passes and immediately pressure.

Get out of wall quickly and into play.

If we win the ball, everyone but fullbacks push up FAST.

Direct/Indirect Kick Left

Indirect kick=the ball must touch another player on your team before going into the goal. The referee with point arm/hand straight to sky.

Direct kick=the ball can be kicked directly into the goal. The referree with extend arm straight at the goal.

On indirect kick, Player 2 will come up and have ball a few steps in front of Player 1. Player 2 will pass the ball back to Player 1 and they will make pass to outside or kick at goal. Player 2 immediately gets back to defensive position after they set play up.
