3 Team Possession Game

3 Zone Game

Begin with players locked into their zones. Blues are trying to get a point by passing through the middle zone. If/When Whites receive the ball, they are trying to get a point by completing a pass into blue. 

The ball should restart with the coach when it goes out of bounds. Alternate which end zone you pass into so all players are involved. 

Progression: 

Yellow team (team in the middle) sends 1 player to defend the team with the ball. The attacking team is still trying to get a point by connecting to the opposite zone. If the defenders can win the ball and dribble outside of the grid, the defenders earn a point. Rotate teams every 2:00-3:00 minutes so everyone gets a chance in the middle.

Rapid Fire

5v5+5 Around the 18 Yard Box 

SET UP 

Use 18 yard box (might have to make the indoor yard box bigger depending on numbers) 

15x35 yards 

OBJECTIVE 

Coach plays the ball in to the attacking team (blue). Blue is trying to score on the goal while White team defends. If blue scores, they get a point and start another attack (ball from coach in yellow). When blue is trying to score, they can use the Black team on the outside as bumpers/bounce passes (Black team has 1-2 touch). If the white team wins the ball, they can connect a pass to the outside Black team for a point.  (Switch the roles of each team after 2-3 minutes) 

PROGRESSION

Create a transition game. When the defenders win it and pass to the outside players the ball is dead. But White team becomes the attackers, blue team becomes the target players on the outside and the black team comes in the 18 yard box to defend.

Unopposed Shooting

Lines A, B, C. Go in order from Line A, to Line B and Line C (not all at once). Players move from Line A - to B - to C. 

Line A and C are doing the same thing but on different sides. Players in Line A/C take a 1 big touch before they get to the blue cones and pick it up on the other side of the blue cones. They then cut to the inside of the black cone and have a shot on goal. This is to practice the players running at speed with the ball. 

Line B is dribbling forward (with speed) to make a move around the cones in front of them to shoot.

2v1 Finishing

2v1s 

The players on the yellow cones are the attackers. One attacker dribbles in with a ball and their teammates joins (2 attackers). As soon as the attacker dribbles, the green defender (player on the blue cone) can run back to try to defend the ball. This encourages the attackers to get their shot off when they have an opportunity. 

If the defenders win the ball, they can dribble anywhere outside of the grid to earn a point.

Unopposed Shooting

Unopposed shooting. 

Set up is the same on both sides. 

Player A dribbles out to cone B. Once they reach cone B, they pass to Player C who then passes to Player D on the middle cone. Player D takes a touch to control and a touch to finish. 

Rotation: Player A goes to Player C, Player C goes to Player D and becomes the next shooter. ALTERNATE sides each turn. 

Coaching Points: 

Players should be dribbling with pace with head up to look for the next pass 

Encourage 2 touch passing where possible 

Make distances appropriate to age / ability of players
