Description

The session is a progression from last week's focus on game play and how players adapt in different situations.

  • Overload.
  • Underload.
  • Small space.
  • Large space.
The outcome of the session is for players to come up with two focus areas to adapt in game play.

Swapping Game

SET UP

  • Two teams. Each team is split across two pitches.
  • Each team has a goal to attack towards and a goal to defend. This must be the same direction for each team on both pitches.
  • When a player scores, that player immediately moves to the other pitch, joining the same coloured team.

  • There should be lots of movement of players from one pitch to the other and this will naturally lead to players having an underload or overload.
  • How do we react in these situations?
  • How can we react in the situations?
If you have a large group, create several pitches for scoring players to keep moving down the pitches.

SET UP

  • Each team has two gates to score into.
  • Score by making a pass to your teammate in the gate. Keep rotating the players in the gates.
  • If you score, keep possession of the ball.
  • Swap goals halfway through the activity so that each team scores on different sides of the pitch.
