Futsal Session (Beginner): G Technical Practice

Screen 2

Passing & Receiving: 6 players on outside of grid 5 with a ball. 6 players in the middle, 4 attackers 2 defenders.

Players in the middle move around the inside of the grid and look to receive a pass from the outside players. As soon as the ball is played players on outside must give 1 of 2 commands; "Man on" or "Turn" Defending players apply light pressure to attacking players to begin with progress to full pressure. If player says "Man on" player plays ball back to the outside. If player says turn player turns and looks to find player without a ball on the outside.

Coaching Points: Communication must be early and appropriate to players situation. Players in the middle; good first touch, checking shoulder, accelration after turn, head up looking for space and open player.
