SB Skill Introduction (10 mins)

Area: 40 x 20 divided into four 10 x 20 grids Players: 9 - 15

Explanation: Medium and long pass combinations Groups of at least three in each grid, at least two at end A rest distributed evenly at A/B. Player A passes long ball to Player B who takes a touch and passes back to Player A who is moving towards the ball after the initial pass receiving the ball half way up the grid. Player A passes short/medium ball back to Player B, Player B then passes long ball down to Player A2 to restart the sequence Repeat Sequence. Variation: initially no passes above knee height; first time passes without touch (if a good ball to hit); move to long passes above knee height; after initial pass chipping on coming passers (i.e. eliminate passes 3/2 and 5/6.

Coaching Points: Long/medium short pass timing/weight/accuracy. using instep for medium passes and laces for longer passes. landing/standing foot position close and in line to the ball for medium passes, slightly behind for longer passes

SB Skill Intro II (10 mins)

Progression: Change area to two 20 X 20 grids with a central 5 meter zone creating three zones. 2 players in each zone, initial set up two attackers in each end zone one inside the zone one beyond the end line, 1 active defender and 1 defender stands out on one side substituting active defender after two passes across the central zone. Attackers aim to pass the ball from one end zone to the other past the defender, either directly or via the middle attacker (4 v 1). Rotate players through each zone.

Step Up: activate the second defender to create 4 v 2

Step Down: have the extra defender become an attacker at one side to create and extra player (5 v 1)

Coaching Points: Perception: forward passing lanes, position of defender, support to ball carrier; Decision: Can I pass forward, can I create a forward passing lane with my movement, take a touch v first touch pass Execution: direction/weight of pass, movement into space off the ball

SB Skill Training (25 mins)

Area: 40 x 20 use flat markers to create a mid zone and two end zones, two small goals at each 40m end Players: 9-16

Explanation: set up 4 v 4 plus 4 players in each corner, these players should stay within a couple of meters of the corner in support of the team they receive the ball from (creating 8 v 4 overload). Play starts with attacking team retrieving ball from a goal and attacking opposite goals with the aim to move ball forward to score as quickly as possible through the lines of defence, goal scored from attacking teams defense third is worth five points, goals scored from mid third worth three points, goals scored from attacking third worth one point. The Goals could be seen as a ball to a strikers feet. If the defending team wins the ball they then become the attacking team trying to score as quickly as possible assisted by the corners team.

Coaching: encourage forward long/medium passes, encourage first touch pass goals Perception: where are defenders in proximity to goals, where are my passing lanes: Decisions: can I pass forward, can I score with a first touch Execution: weight/accuracy of pass, fake's, faints to create space for forward pass

Progression: Once a team scores, they can then quickly retrieve a ball from either goal at the end where they scored and quickly change attack to the opposite end. At the same time the team that were in the corners quickly moves in to set up defsensively defending opposite end and the team that was defending moves to the corners to support which ever team is attacking. Aim is to make the tranistion as quickly as possible to support more options for foward passing before defense is set

Step Up: Narrow area, one or two corner players can enter field as joker defenders Step Down: Widen area, one or two corner players can enter field as joker attackers
