Arrival Activity (20 mins)

1st Group

Players are put into a game upon arrival, and we discuss the formation we are going to use (Diamond)

For the first 5 minutes, there is no conditions, just prompts about the formation and the corresponding roles. Then, a game of handball with a target man is played, for the next 10 minutes. The same formations are used, and again prompts are given about roles and responsibilities. There are no conditions.

2nd Group

Players are put into a game with the volley ball. The rules are:

- Possession for 3 secs max

- Any body part can be used

- Goals must be scored within the blue line on the court

Then, players can be given the Futsal, and put into a game. Before play starts, a breif about the formation that will be used is given and a quick discussion on who will play where. All interventions/stops will be timed with my watch and reviewed at the end.

Practice (30 mins)

Using a Phase of play, I will play a game of ATT vs DEF with one team in a 1-1-2-1 and a second team in a formation that they wish to use. Team A will be the 'Diamond' team, the team I will be working with. Their role is to defend the main goal, which will be two goals put together, and look to regain possession. Upon regaining posession, they will then be able to counter attack and subsequently score in the wide placed goals, which simulate an outlet to the wingers.

First Group

The topman will be the first focus. I will ask them to try and make play predictable. Topman must press the ball but only when B enters the midfield 3rd. The press must force the player down the line, into a wide area.

Then, the wing player that the opposition is being forced towards will be asked to cut off the middle. This forms a 2 v 1 overload in the favour of A. The wing will be encouraged to challenge the opposition to a 'race' and look to steal the ball.

The backman will be expected/prompted to sweep any space that has the potential to be attacked

The same points will be given to the second group, but more emphasis will be placed on the 1-3 defensive formation in their own half. A tactic that will be used in the AFCs.

Match to finish (10 mins)

The game to finish will be a scenario. Team A will be a club that matches the bib they are wearing, so to will team B. The team with more players will be 3-1 down in the Champions League final. The team who are winning will be told they have a man sent off and must deal with that. Discussions about pressure will be made throughout etc.
