3 Teams of 2 in Red,Blue,Green
Timings (9-18 Min Total)
3 Rep's of 2 Minutes On with 1 Minute Off- Allows rotation of all field players to play in each grid.
Could add a 2nd set if needed.
Explanation:
Ball will begin with the goal keeper and the 2 players in Grid A. They will be looking to play the ball at tempo to unbalance the 2 defending players in Grid B. Their objective is to try and play through the central zone to connect with the players in Grid C.If they are successful, the players in Grid C must connect before scoring the goal (1 or 2 Touch).
The team defending look to screen passes/block passes and recover possession. If they are beaten, 1 or both players can now enter Grid C to dry and deny the goal scoring opportunity. If they win the ball from the initial group, they are now allowed to go 2v2 to the big goal.
Challenges:
The challenge for the players defending is to try and not allow the ball to pass through their zone. We are looking for them to screen passing lanes and try to intercept the ball to cause a transition moment. Attacking group is looking to connect from Grid A to Grid C as many times possible in the 2 Minutes.
Conditions:
GK + 2 Initial Field Players(Grid A) looking to break the initial line
Defending Group (Grid B) trying to screen pass and deny the ball traveling to the third grid
Team looking to receive the ball (Grid C): good movement + verbal and non verbal communication to create options for forward passes.
Targets:
The aim of the drill is to break the central 2 defenders as many times as possible without losing possession cheaply.
