Activity 1 (20 mins)

Field: 40 length x 60 width
4 midfielders (blue) vs. 3 midfielders (black).
Scoring: Players score by passing thru gates. Two yellow gates is 1 pt. One green gate is worth 3 points.
Coaching Points: Pressure-Cover-Balance + Communication. Where are we forcing? Don't want forwards running at the center of our defense. Teach double down philosophy if ball gets played in behind.

iii. Add one defender
