Intro (15 mins)

Organization:

set up an area of 15×10 yards

Instructions:

We’re using eight players, split into five possession players and three defenders. We play a 5v3 possession game and the team of five must try to keep the ball away from the defenders by finding as much space as possible to receive and pass.

Every 4 passes is 1 point, 2 point by split the pass.

The defenders press and try to block or intercept the ball, if the y gain possession and complete 2/3 passess they get point.

Coaching Points/Questions:

What we have to do to keep a good shape?

What we have to do if we want to keep away the defenders?

Main Activity (25 mins)

Organization:

set up an area of 30×20 yards with a 10-yard end zone in front of the goal

This is a 6v4 game using 10 players split into an attacking team of six and a defending team of four. Two of the attackers and one defender are positioned in the end zone.

Instructions:

This is a 6v4 game using 10 players split into an attacking team of six and a defending team of four. Two of the attackers and one defender are positioned in the end zone.

The player out of the field starts by passing a ball to the attacking players, who must pass and keep possession in the midfield zone. When they can hey are free to look for an opening to play the ball down the pitch to their two strikers in the end zone.

Once the ball is played into the end zone, one of the attackers and any of the defenders from the midfield zone can follow it into the end zone. The attackers must try to score.

If the defenders get the ball back and complete 3 passes they get 2 points.

Coaching Points/Questions:

Are we making good decision?

When to keep the possession and when to play the ball forward?

P: offside rule (strikers have to run in the space)

P:#of passes before to play forward

Conditioned Game (30 mins)

Organization:

Setting up in the same 30×20-yard area, this activity is the same as the previous practice.

Instructions:

The strikers are not in the last 10 yards

Attackers team points:

score with long ball in the air 1 point

score with an opening to play it forward to the strikers run in the end zone 2 points

score with possession and penetration for the stikers run 3 points

we now add two target goals at the end opposite the main goal. This gives the defenders an opportunity to counter-attack if they win the ball.

If the defenders win the ball and score get 1 point, if they win the ball play with the defender in the end zone and launch a quick counter-attack and score they get 3 points

This time the defender wins the ball and passes back to his team mate in the end zone

3. The defending team launch a quick counter-attack and score in one of the target goals

P: add a midfield for the defenders

P: offsides

Match (30 mins)

Organization:

Instructions:

It’s a 8v8 game including goalkeepers and we play with normal rules, with one team set up in a 2-3-2 formation and the other in a 3-2-2.

The 2-3-2 formation operates with more width and would stretch the 3-2-2 team, creating more space to keep possession.
