Warm Up (Variable) (5 mins)

Divide players into 3 teams.

Players spread out around a circle with one player from each team in the middle.

One ball per team.

Ball starts on the outside of the circle and plays into the middle player. Player follows his pass.

The middle player receives the ball and looks to play to another outer player. Again, player follows his pass.

Coaching points:

Make sure the middle player is aware of his surroundings.

Scan over shoulder and don't bump into any one.

Make sure the players play across to the opposite side of the circle as much as possible.

Target Player Game (10 mins)

Set pitch up as shown with 2 target areas at each end with a target player in each of the target areas.

3 defending players occupy each of the defending zones running across the pitch.

The blue team has to try to play from one target player to the other, through the thirds without the red team intercepting the ball.

Coaching points:

Remind the players of the focus of the session - receiving the ball to play forward. Can they play forwards quickly?
