Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): 10/23/23 DLSC Coaches Ed: Providing options to play forward (Start Time: 2023-10-23 19:15:00)

Passing Pattern 1- Progression 1 (10 mins)

Passing Pattern 1- Progression 1 

Vision/Purpose:

-If players are facing back, can we move to provide options underneath

-If players are facing forward, can we provide options higher/ahead

Objectives:

-Technical execution (right, left /passing&receiving / ball speed / body orientation)

-Physical (movement to unmark and arrive / movement to step to ball / mechanics for technique)

-Tactical (angles of support / options to play forward / speed of play / direction / scanning-perception-vision)

-Psychological (focus / energy / resilience-recovery-progress after mistake / effort)

Pattern:

Order: A-B-A-C-B-D : This ends up on the opposite end, and repeat. 

Actions: A passes to B (who moves to unmark and arrive) - B passes down into A who is moving forward to combine ; A passes forward to C (who moves to unmark and arrive) - C passes down into B who is moving forward to combine ; B passes  forward to D (who moves to unmark and receive to start the next sequence on the other side).

Periodization:

4 x 2 min 

2 min rest 

10 min total

Passing Pattern 2 - Progressions 1/2/3 (15 mins)

Passing Pattern 2

Vision/Purpose:

-If players are facing back, can we move to provide options underneath

-If players are facing forward, can we provide options higher/ahead

Objectives:

-Technical execution (right, left / running w the ball / passing&receiving / ball speed / body orientation)

-Physical (movement to unmark and arrive / movement to step to ball / mechanics for technique)

-Tactical (angles of support / options to play forward / speed of play / direction / scanning-perception-vision)

-Psychological (focus / energy / resilience-recovery-progress after mistake / effort)

Pattern:

Progression 1/2

Order: A-B-C : This ends up on the opposite end, and repeat.

Actions: A passes to B (who moves to unmark and arrive) - B passes down into C (who moves to unmark and open) - C runs with the ball forward in progression 1. C passes forward into the next player in the next line in progression 2.

Progression 3

Order: A-B-C-B-C : This ends up on the opposite end, and repeat.

Actions: A passes to B (who moves to unmark and arrive) - B passes down into C (who moves to unmark and open) - C runs with the ball forward in progression 1. C passes forward into the next player in the next line in progression 2.

Periodization:

6 x 2 min

3 min rest

6v6+5 (20 mins)

6v6+5

Vision/Purpose:

- Looking to play forward, creating numerical advantages, going to goal.

- One team off providing free options for team in position (5- two on each side of each goal, one in the interior). Plus players have one touch, except for player inside. 11v6 in possession

- If players finish one-touch off of a pass from a plus player (neutral), it is worth two. All other goals count for 1. This to incentivize players to play higher (priming them to look forward first). 

Objectives:

-Technical execution (right, left /passing&receiving - shooting - running w the ball / ball speed / body orientation)

-Physical (movement to unmark and arrive / movement to step to ball / mechanics for technique)

-Tactical (angles of support / options to play forward / speed of play / direction / scanning-perception-vision / creating GSO / Creating Numerical Overloads / Finding the free player)

-Psychological (focus / energy / resilience-recovery-progress after mistake / effort)

Periodization:

3 x 6 min 

2 min rest
