3 v 2 channel - space, possession, scoring

Very simple 3 v 2 drill working in a channel.

Player 1 and 2 are defenders. Players 3, 4 and 5 are attackers

Defender (1 or 2) passes up to any of the attackers... chase the ball to put pressure on the attackers

The attackers receive the ball, control it and coordinate their attack (triangles) to control possession, make space and score.

Coaching points for attackers

1) controlling the ball

2) spread out - make space

3) communicate

4) maintain a triangle - ensure there is always a spare man to pass to.

Coaching points for the defenders

1) One defender chases the ball to put pressure on the receiver - don't over-commit

2) approach and take defensive position, side-on to push the attacker to the sides

3) challenge to win the ball, look to see movement of the spare man

COACHING POINTS

1. look for player 2 to use some movement to recieve first pass in box, drop front left or right of box and simple lay off

2. player 1 needs to play firm pass upto 3 calling name, imagine its a game there pass needs to be game like

3. very important that the timing of player 2's run is not to quick, he should try and time it so he is leaving the box just as player 3 lays it off
