Warm-Up - Recognising the Space (10 mins)

Warm-Up - Recognising the Space

Players will start off by moving around the square without their soccer ball and running into space. The game will then quickly turn into eveyone's it. If you get tagged you must run to a soccer ball and jump over it however you want.

45 seconds - Rep 1 - Run and find space

2 minutes - Rep 2 - Everyone's it w/out a soccer ball

45 seconds - Rep 3 - Dribble and find space

2 minutes - Rep 4 - Everyone's it with a soccer ball

60 seconds - Rep 5 - Everyone gets into pairs. Pass & Move with pairs to find space.

2 minutes - Rep 6 - Everyone's it in pairs. Player with the soccer ball can only tag the other player with the soccer ball.

Technical Coaching Points

1) Where do you need to be looking?

2) What are you looking for?

3) To find space = Defend - To close in on someone = Attack (Are you constantly in motion?)

4) 1st Attacker = (1) Shoot, (2) Dribble, (3) Pass (What can you do? Penetrate)

5) 2nd Attacker = Support (Where can you be supporting from?)

Activity 1 - 2v1 to the Jack (15 mins)

Activty 1 - 2v1 to the Jack

Players will team up in 3's. There will be 2 groups working in each area to provide a touch of organised chaos to the setting.

The 2 attackers' objective is to kick the ball at the jack. If the Defender wins the ball, their objective is to dribble it to the Pugg Goal in the middle of the activity area.

Rotate defenders after each repetition - Give players 30 seconds to come up with a game plan. Move the Jack every game.

2 mins - Play 2v1

2 mins - Play 2v1 (1st Attacker - Options (1) Shoot, (2) Dribble, (3) Pass)

Game - 6v6 (20 mins)

Game - 6v6

Players will focus on applying their understanding of what a 1st attacker can attack with and how a 2nd attacker can support.

Focus Points

1) Focus on the GK (What can they use? Hands - How can they distribute? Roll)

2) When the GK has the ball (Goal Kick or save) where do the 2 defenders go? Wide - Then where do they go to after the ball has been distributed? Central. WHY? To cover the space.

3) Soccer Savvy = Quick Throw in. WHY?
