BP Structured Build up (5 mins)

Main Moment: BP

Key Principle: Effective Possession 1. Structured Build up

Football Problem (using the 5W’s):

What: Wider backs are unable to play out ball from the back to our #6 & #8 when either of the back 3 has possession.

Who: #2, #3, #5 & support play from #6,#8,

When: #2 or #5 has possession

Where: In my teams defensive 3rd

Why: Positioning when #2 or #5 has ball. #6 & #8 not combining with #3/#4, #7, #11

Session Objective: I aim to improve... My Teams ability to play out from the back in when our wide fullbacks have the ball. Our aim is to keep possession and build up play through better positioning of our #2,#3 &,#5 who will combine with our #6 & #8.

Team Task: To maximise the total width of the pitch in structured build up from the back, make field as big as possible when GK has ball, creating space for our backs to combine with our #6 & #8.

Player Tasks: (General / Position-specific):

* Wide players #2, #5, #7, #11 to push on high and wide

* #3 to move across the box to move the attackers.

* GK to play spare player (player not marked & not under immediate pressure)

* #6 & #8 to create they work space, check off away from defensive.

* #2, #3, #5 to recognise that if they are getting pressed to one side, a quick switch to opposite side will create overloads or 1v1’s switched side.

* GK to offer support option if there is a defensive block, if GK receives ball, look to switch play asap.

* #9 to create space for the wide players by running off the ball, checking in and checking out, be in position to create 1v1s or 2v1s.

* Facing forward where possible.

Coach’s Cues:

-Ensure correct shape is set when GK/#3 has the ball

-Eliminate or reduce long 50/50 balls with the aim to retain possession and play out from the back.

-Ensure players are receiving the ball in forward facing positions

-Maintain balance of shape on the pitch, if the right side receives the ball wide, then the left side should tuck in and vice versa.

-Pitch length will be 60m, width will be full width

-2 Neutal players as bouncers. (Rotate every 3-4mins)

- Play always starts from the BLUE end, either GK can knock the ball to start the play. RED team has to move it position quickly ready to receive the ball from GK.

-Rotate teams to allow BLUE the opportunity to play our from the back. 5 mins

Explanation/Progression:

-No corners

-If ball is played out, play starts with opposition GK

-The red team will be without a #3 which should allow space in the attacking third corners

-RED can score from the shot zone over half way = 1 point

-BLUE get the ball they have 10 seconds to score a point = 5 points

Discuss the importance of:

-Creating space (CREATIVE)

-Creating options by running angles (PRO ACTIVE)

-Communication

-Receive the pass in a forward facing position (QUALITY)
