  • White team: 1,2, 4, 5, 3, 6 + target players (10, 8).
  • Red team: 4 players. Start activity and restarts behind contention line (where target players are).

Coaching Points/Questions:

  • Encourage regular buildout shape with CBs getting wide inside the box and outside backs wide and higher.
  • Through the activity, ask the center midfielder to drop in all the way to the box.
    • Can I receive and turn quickly? (If space available)
    • If so, can I dribble and engage opposition to then (1) pass to an open teammate or (2) keep dribbling.
    • Before I receive, how can I get an idea of how open will I be? (Scan around)
