1v1 Lose the defender (30 mins)

Under 7's - Nick & Leigh

Organisation - Split 7's into 2 smaller groups of 6-8 boys.

1v1 Lose the defender - The defender passes to the attacker and runs to defend.

The attacker receives the ball and attempts to score in one of the goals. For the next attack, the players rotate positions

• “Try to slow the defender down and then accelerate”

• “Take the defender away from where you want to go & attack the space” (For example a right footed player would take a defender to the left, before accelerating quickly into the space created on the right)
