4v2 +1 Rondo (15 mins)

Organization - 2 grids of 8x8 

3 games of 90s - 1 min rest 

 

Game - We will have a space divided into 2 equal sub-spaces. The aim is to keep possession of the ball and move from one sub-space to the other through passing. The players on the sides will always move to be in the sub-space where the ball is. 

1 points for playing the ball through middle square / 3 point for 8 passes 

 

Change roles: one team defends for 90s  

 

Feedback: 

Cues to press- When = when we are able to read next pass/action from opponent / Where = where is it easier to win the ball? How do we guide the ball there?  / How = Closing passing lane while approaching the ball (affect the ball)**

Channel Game (20 mins)

Organization - 2 grids of 20Wx15L - and one channel in the middle 20Wx5L. 5 teams of 3 players  

Duration -  90s work - 90s  rest / Total 12 min (4 teams) 

Intensity - Very Hard / Allow max recovery between reps

Game -  Attacking players look to progress the ball to opposite side (3 points through the lines / 1 point around shape).

Focus team is the defensive team. We are looking for quality defensive actions. (1v1) 

Attacking team needs to complete at least 3 passes before they can try to send the ball to opposite grid.

Score - Defensive team score a point for every block or interception 

Constrain to provoke 100% (Intensity/effort)- the attacking team can find opposite grid in the air. 

1. Can you arrive on time with the pass

2. intensity in the press - commit to your defensive action in order to deny long ball

3. Def. Stance (light on toes, side on, low)

4. be aggressive - do not allow the attacking player bring his head up

5. Communication from def line to pressing player 

6. Read opponent's body language - can you anticipate next action (hips, pass, eyes)

3 teams - Patrick, Rok, Ian, Edgard /  Zaiden, Noah, Javi, Mateo / Esteban, Joseph, Foltz, Morgan /  Brayden M, Tristan, Alan , Rafa

6v6 game + 2 GKs. Attacking team tries to score in either mini goals 

Defensive team structure (3-2-1)  

Game objective: Develop defensive team communication to create horizontal compactness to deny progression of the ball centrally 

Scoring system - 

ATT - if attacking team is able to play the ball in all 3 channels before scoring  = 3 points (In to out concept) 

Progression - to provoke more pressing actions

DEF - If defensive team recovers the ball in z1 and scores = 2 points 

CP's / Feedback 

1. First line of defender needs to communicate which are of the field we want to force the ball to (non verbal) 

2. 2nd line of pressure (look for cues to press after 1st pass (When/ Where/ How) 

3. 3rd line needs to provide vertical compactness (follow players in and do not let them turn) 

AFFECT THE BALL / GO ALL OUT / COMMUNICATE !

Teams -  2GKs
