SET UP

Two teams of 3-4 players.

One ball (although it's handy to have spares to keep the game flowing).

Mark out a playing area of two squares.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • One team starts with the ball; their aim is to pass the ball between themselves in order to score points for consecutive passes (eg. 3-5).
  • One player from the opposite team enters the playing area and looks to get a touch on the ball.
  • If the ‘defending’ player manages to touch the ball, or if the team in possession let the ball out of the area, the game moves over to the other side of the pitch and re-starts.
  • If the team with the ball successfully win a point, the ball transfers to the other team for their turn.
IS IT WORKING?

No - 

  • Reduce the number of passes the players have to make before they score a point to increase initial success and confidence.
  • Increase the size of the playing area.
Yes - 
  • Decrease the playing area to make the game harder for teams when they are in ‘attack’. Reducing the space will reduce the amount of time players have to make decisions.
  • Make scoring a point more challenging by increasing the number of passes they have to make before they score a point.
TO THINK ABOUT

If you have lots of players set up multiple boxes and have lots of games going on at once to keep everyone active. Allow players to play for a few minutes and then rotate the teams around.

Keep track of the score to keep players motivated.

End to End

SET UP

4 attackers (white & blue) vs 2 defenders (orange).

1 ball.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • Attackers need to pass from one side (end zone) to the other to score a point. Players in the middle can be used but if there is a clear pass from one end to the other, the quickest route should be taken.
  • Attackers can pass the ball back to the player it started with.
  • If a defender intercepts the ball, they need to make a pass to their teammate to score the point.
  • Keep rotating players in the end zones and switch defenders.
  • Players in the end zones can move around in those zones but are not allowed into the centre.
IS IT WORKING?

No - 

  • Increase the size of the playing area so that the defenders have more space to defend.
  • Increase the size of the end zones to give the attackers a larger target.
  • Overload the attacking team in the middle to create 3 v 2. The far end zone player could be allowed into the centre to help before receiving or carrying the ball to the end zone.
Yes - 
  • Set a time challenge for the attackers to move the ball from one end zone to the other. Or see how many times they can get the ball from end to end repeatedly in 2 minutes.
  • Overload the defence to challenge the attackers.
  • Add constraints - eg. two touches on the ball or passing off right foot.

Attacking Play 3 v 2

SET UP

  • Players 1, 2, 3 = attackers.
  • Players 4, 5 = defenders.
  • Player 1: Carry to the cone ahead of you and pass to player 2.
  • Player 2: Make a lead run to receive the ball from player 1. Pass to player 3.
  • Player 3: Make a lead run to receive the ball from player 2, shoot for goal.
  • Player 4: As soon as player 1 sets off, try and intercept their pass to player 2. If successful, carry the ball to the starting cone (where player 1 started). Player 1 can try and win possession back.
  • Player 5: If player 4 is successful and intercepts the ball, sprint to catch up with your teammate to support them (available for a pass if needed) to reach the starting cone.
  • Player 5 can also try to intercept the pass from player 2 to player 3 if player 4 has not won the ball.
  • This activity should look and feel like a game. Players have starting positions and objectives but each round should be played out until a goal is scored or the defence get the ball back to the start.
  • Rotate players to new positions.
  • Swap sides to start on the left.
  • Keep the game competitive by adjusting the space. Ie, if the defence keep intercepting the first pass, start them further back.
