Objective: Passing and Receiving; Combination and Give and Go's
Technical passing practice with the tactical concept of using width and depth and tactical actions such as Give and Go.
Organization:
- In a 20x20 yard area, we work in groups of 6-8 players. The four players inside start in the positions shown and we have 2 extra players outside. Each player follows their pass after their action is complet.
- Player A starts the excercise by passing out wide to Player B who moves off the cone and passes inside to Player C. Player C passes to Player D who moves off the cone and returns the ball straight back (one-two). Player C moves across and plays the ball into Player D's path who runs for the ball played into space and plays into GK hands or feet and progress to a shot on target.
Coaching Points:
-Create space before moving to meet the ball.
-The correct open body shape should be monitored.
-Change direction of the sequence to that the players pass and receive with both feet.
Interval Duration: 2 intervals x 5 minutes.

Objective: Positional Posession Game. To Continue to develop first touch and awareness of available space.
Organization
-In an area of 15x15, there is a 7 v 3 possession game. The 5 Blue players (back 4) take up their positions outside the playing area, with two of their blue teammates (6-8) positioned inside.

The inside Blue Players ( 6-8) muse use 2 touches, so that they have to be aware of the available space in order to make their first touch towards open space. The outside players are un restricted to start. After the first interval, outside players have only 1 touch.
-Once possession is lost by a player on the outside, the player must switch with a Pink Defender.
