Warm-up (20 mins)

Organization: 2 Boxes (one red, one blue) 4 players wearing that color in each square. All the balls with coach outside the middle channel of the grid. Players number themselves 1-4.

Instructions:

-Coach plays the ball to either side, which ever side the coach does not pass it to one defender (#1) from the opposite team sprints over to the opposite square and defends (4v1).

-If the ball goes out off of the blue team coach immediately shouts 'dead ball!' and passes it over to the red team and the blue team then sends their one defender (#1) to defend the red team (4v1)

-If the team completes 6 passes that is one point and can continue to pass to get as many points as they can.

-If the defender wins the ball they must look to immediatly get the ball back across the middle to his teammates on the other side and rejoins them. Red sends over another defender (#2 this time)

-****Make sure you push and encourage the defender to work hard, if they do not give 100% their team will get bored and check out watching the other team get pass after pass.*****

Coaching Points:

-Can you move the ball quickly so the defender has no time to anticipate?

-Can you quickly shift the ball and the defender to open up a lane to a teammate?

-Quality of first touch

-Can we disguise our passes to allow teammates more time on the ball?

Progressions:

-You can add number of traveling defenders

-Touch Restriction

-More passes to get a point

-Defender gets a point for his team if he successfully gets the ball back and across to his team

Screen 2 (20 mins)

Organization: 3 Different colored cones, 4 mini goals all balls split equaly to both sides of different colored cones

Instructions: 1st player begins on coach's command with the ladder at full speed and sprints to red cone, Player then has to cut to one side and take the soccer ball and dribble towards mini goal/defender and preform any 1v1 move that we have worked on following sessions, after beating defender player then has to pass ball into goal. 1 goal for ladder succesfully, 2 points for 1v1 skill, and 1 point for scoring at the end goal.

Coaching Points: Making sure players are at full speed throughout entire drill just as in game like scenario, players must work on both feet escpially for passing.

Having harder ladder drills.

Take over (20 mins)

Organization: 3 different colored cones. In this case green: Defending line, Red/blue: Attacking lines. You will need one goalie and set it up just ouside the 18 yard box (where the move generally occurs)

Instructions:

-Players at the red cone start with the ball

-On their first touch they dribble directly across towards the blue cone line, the defender rushes from behind

-On the red cones first touch the first player at the blue cone sprints across towards the red cone and around the dribbler to either take over the ball or leave it for the dribbler

-Rotate (Green to Red, Red to Blue, Blue to Green)

Coaching Points:

-Dribble with the ball on the outside of your body (opposide side of defender/near side to your teammate)

-As the dribbler read the position of the defender (lay it off or fake it and take it yourself?)

-As the person doing the take over do not hesitate whether you get the ball or not, if you hesitate for a second the defender will know what is going on.

-Communicate the plan early.

Progressions:

switch sides of the defenders approach (Green cone to purple, I just have the players move the green cone over) and direction of take over (instead of red starting off, have blue line start.

Conditioned Game (30 mins)

Organization: 2 Mini goals, 4v4 +1 Neutral GK in a grid roughly 30x40 to allow plenty of space to allow take overs

Instructions:

-Players score a goal by either getting the ball into the back of the net or successfully pulling off a take over

-If the take over leads to a goal then it would be two points but if the take over is faked and the dribbler keeps the ball and still scores it is just the one point for the goal but applaude the decision to keep it and go.

-Goalkeeper is neutral and can only use his hands, touch up on his distribution technique when you should.

Coaching Points:

-When is it appropriate to attempt this move? (is there space to run into? Are there too many defenders?)

-Keep the ball on the opposite side of defender (strong side)

-Do not hesitate the move

-Communicate early
