Screen 1

Organisation

Numbers and formations to suit your needs.

Pitch size to suit your needs.

Divide the pitch into 4 zones.

Players can only enter Zone 4 after the ball enters it. (Up back & through, overlapping etc).

How to Play

Teams can only play in three of the four zones.

Reds allow the Grey team possession in defending quarter and are marking the Grey midfield (Ball side and Goal Side).

Both teams are only playing in 3 of the Zones.

Variations

The Red team COULD play with a high pressand all push forward by one zone.

Could be used for the defending team to practice playing offsides or sweeper/keeper.

Screen 2

Organisation

As previous.

Development

One of the defenders dribbles the ball into the second zone, the striker moves into a higher position but stays in Zone 3.

Opposite side defender steps into zone 2, allowing the wide midfield player to push up.

Central defender covers in Zone 1.

From this position you can use your own principles/patterns of play. (Play off the striker, build in wide areas etc.)

THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THE PRACTICE IS TO KEEP GOOD DISTANCES BETWEEN THE UNITS WITHIN THE TEAM AS THE GAME MOVES UP AND DOWN THE PITCH.
