Phase 2 (20 mins)

1v1 to Goal Transition Game

The first person in line A dribbles forward and attempts to finish a 1 on 1 oportunity against the goal keeper. As they strike the ball a player from line B attacks the other goal and the player that just took the shot from line A must drop back and defend the player coming on the field.

If the player in line A can recover, win the ball back, and score a second goal the goal is worth double and the game continues.

Coaching Points:

-Recover quickly

-Take away the attackers angle show them away from goal

-Anticipate to block the shot

-Transition mentally as well as physically.

3v3 Transition Game

It is the same game as phase 2, but 3 v e rather than 1v1. There will be less goals as there are more defenders so make sure that after any shot regardless of weather or not it is a goal the next group of 3 comes on to emphasize the transition portion of the drill.

Coaching Points:

-Recover quickly

-Recover as a unit, as to not go numbers down

- Stay compact as a unit and show the attackers away from goal.
