Instructions:

  • The attackers must keep possession of the ball for as long as they can, if they play a 1-2 around the opposition they score a point. 
  • Points are also awarded every 5 passes to encourage the team to keep possession of the ball.
  • When the defending team win the ball, they can play to an outside floater and one player can breakout before scoring in one of the 4 goals.  
Coaching points (in Possession):

  • Angles and movement off the ball to support the player in possession.
  • Good quality passes, firm.
  • Combine one touch to lose pressing defenders.
  • Communication and body language to each other.

Coaching Points: (out of possession):
