Football/Soccer Session (Academy Sessions): 4 v 2 rondo to Switch

4v2 Switch Rondo (15 mins)

The Session - 40 x 25 yards - Spilt 15/10/15 x 25

Two attacking teams (Red) look to link up with the each other, after combining in their own area before switching the ball.

The Red players will play a 4v2 in their box and look to pass the ball between each other, once the chance to switch happens, they should look to play the ball to the other team. The ball has to stay on teh ground to start.

Each box will have a defender (white) start in the attacking area, and there will be two defenders in the middle shaded zone. One defender is allowed to go and help defend in the attacking area, the other defender will look to intercept and passes to the other attacking team.

For every switch, the Attacking team get a point.

If the defenders win the ball and can switch from one box to the other, two points.

If the attackers lose the ball they need to try and win it back as fast as possible to stop the switch.

Progressions:

Attacking player can drop into the middle zone to provide a link between the two areas.
