Setup: Set up three different teams each in a different channel with a different SAQ drill.

Return to back of line with different dynamic stretch (hip openers/ closers, helicopters, wrecking balls)

Coaching Points: proper body shape through SaQ (lean in to the game). Mental focus on detail.

Switch Rondo (10 mins)

Set Up: Area size can vary dependent upon level, 22 x 11 yards divided in two can work to start. 10 players total [5 red, 5 white], [good supply of balls, pinnies, cones].

Activity: In one half of the box, reds play 5 v 3, with one white player on each end. Red attempts to make 4 passes, then play one of their players into the other half. If successful, they keep possession and attempt the same on the other side. The midway line should be used as an offsides line. If white win the ball, they look to play one of their players on the end to signal a change of possession, then two reds will drop off to the ends.

Progressions: [1] limit touches, [2] must play into other half on 1 touch,

Coaching Points: speed of play, movement of support, technique of first touch, receiving the ball, passing, control, awareness, angles of passes and runs.

Two games of 5v5. Layout goals as shown. Flag goals are dribble through, cone goals are pass through. Mannequin is goal -- must hit feet for goal to count.

Awareness on field -- play to easy goal, drop ball if you need to.

Speed of play -- have an idea before you play, so opposition cannot catch up
