Specific Arrival Activity (10 mins)

This activity is not Full game form or shape work, however it helps prepare for the fundamentals of the full game form session specifically.

The players are split into 3 teams - one defending team and 2 possession teams. The defending team goes in the middle and the other 2 on the ends. The defending team can send in one presser and the rest must stop the transition to the opposite possession team. If the defending team win the ball, they swap with the team who lost the ball. The possession teams can find different shapes to play round the presser.

Differentiation

Touch limit

Extra presser

Player from other possession team can drop into middle box to receive and help the transition.

Full game form (20 mins)

In the full game form, different formations can be worked on along with methods of pressing and playing out from the back. Overloads can be created and different targets can be demanded.

In this picture. It is a goal kick situation and the blue team are set up in a part of a 4-3-3 (two #8s, two wingers and a #9) and the reds are set up to play out from the back in the beginning of a 4-2-3-1 (2 center backs, 2 full backs and 2 #6s)

This allows players to practice the visual so that they can understand the common situation and prepare appropriately in a game. It develops the understanding of the game as well as allowing the players opportunity to find solutions of their own.

Differentiation

Switch sides, formation
Try a different game situation

Try different overloads

Try different targets

SSG (20 mins)

Due to the session topic, this SSG can be free play to allow the player's to put whatever was learned in the full game form into practice in a game which means more than just a drill. The only condition is the normal rules and laws of a football match.

Differentiation

Add conditions to combat player habits e.g if players are taking too many touches or too long to make a decision, introduce a touch limit.
