Description

This is a One-hour game-based session plan. The session aims are to provide opportunities for players to use passing and receiving techniques in twos, threes and fours

The session starts with an arrival activity, so the players can get going while waiting for other players and coaches to set up the session. The session includes:

•Technical warm-up.

•3v3 or 2v2 activity.

•A final game

•3v3 or 2v2 will allows for smaller team opportunities for players to decide when, where, how, and why to either Run with the ball, Dribble, or Pass to a teammate

N/S - E/W

North/South - East/West

Players are trying to connect the ball from one end to the other end. One team is going North/South, the other East west. Do it with 2 balls first, one per team and they are going at the same time.

Move on to one ball only and players must connect with one of the players in the middle before going to the other side for a point to be counted. When the other team gets the ball, they now have to connect to their own ends.

Play on time and switch players on the outside.

Choose between 2v2 or 3v3 in the middle according to number of players.

Setup

1 x 20/25yrds areas.

Objectives

Players are introduced to the concept of creating Width & Depth (Spreading out)when in possession of the ball

Players keep trying to make positive decisions to move the ball forward even when unsuccessful the previous time.
