C receives and holds up as before but return pass is deeper and wider.

C then deepens and opens body up to rx pass 4, takes touch/dribble to delay pass 6 until A has run forward to rx.

Rotation as before - next play comes from opposite end.

Progression 1 : A receives pass 2 and dribbles forward passing direct to B.

Progression 2 : allow A and C to decide how to combine to get the ball to B

Prog 3 2v1 (15 mins)

Make it competitive by replacing the mannekin with a real defender and add goals. Allow attackers to decide how they attack - ie C may turn the defender on occasion - keeps it realistic - but encourage the hold up under pressure and layoff.

*1st defender priority is to not allow C to turn you.

*coach use of arms to 'feel' defender

Rotation : 4/8 balls for red to attack, then swap for blues to attack with 4/8 balls.

2v2 4 goal (20 mins)

A4 makes run into last third - beyond pole.

A1 plays pass for A4 to hold up as R1 comes to defend.

A4 calls for support from A3 or A2 who approaches to receive a pass between half way and pole.

The opposite red defender R3 above is now active to make 2v2. Both teams try to score.

If a goal is scored that team keeps possession - ie continues serving from base line.

Loss of possession results in other team serving.

*encourage receiving player to maintain length

*encourage defending team to communicate - 1st defender - hold - tackle - left - right etc

Progression : allow defending team to decide who becomes 2nd defender.
