Pattern Passing to Penetrate

Pattern Passing to Penetrate

Encourage players to move ball quickly. Replicate supporting angles as the ball moves, do not be static. Strikers should recognize visual cues of when to check for the ball. Passes should be crisp and on the floor to continue a quick and realistic game tempo. Activity should be done in two touches then one touch.

Divide into two teams and see who can complete more reps per 3 minutes.

4v2 to 10v4

4v2 to 10v4

Blues play 4v2 against red. Blues trying to split the reds with passes, point for each split completed. If red wins the ball they play against the 4 blue. Reds have two objectives: 1) ten passes=1 pt. 2) play into red players in the middle and keep possession.

Stress to players the importance of patience both in the 4v2 and the 10v4. Move the ball quickly to unbalance and create overloads to play out the other side. Keep the game to 2 touches, one touch if possible. Be mindful of playing out of pressure and taking touches across the body. Movement off the ball and supporting angles for both teams is crucial for success of keeping the ball.

Play to 5, then switch players in and out.

4v4+3

Blue players attack goal. Blues can use supporting players and the bumpers to create goal scoring opportunities. Object is to play into bumpers and run off the for goal scoring chances. Finishes from must be 1 touch. When red wins ball they try to score in counter goals.

Encourage players to be patient until they can play penetrating balls.into bumpers. Use the supporting players to change point of attack. Keep play moving and encourage free flow movement between the 3 CMs.

Play into central forward when possible and encourage them to hold and play the way they face. Keep touches down and be sharp technically. Not every chance down the field is going to result in a scoring chance and not every ball into the bumper is going to result in a shot on goal.
