Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Attack vs Defence wide transitions

Screen 1 (25 mins)

Red team to attack the mini goals either side of the 11-a-side goal against the blue team with a focus of stretching the play and getting the ball out wide to overload the full back and wide central midfielder. 

Red 4 to collect the ball from deep and then dribble with the ball until a pass is apparent (to bait a press). 

Blue team to work on winning the ball back at first once the ball is won back it then returns to the hafway line.

In posession - Looking to create attacks through 1 vs 1 wing play.

Out of posession - Looking to restrict the counter attack.

Attacking transition - create quick passing moves to isolate full backs.

Defensive transition - Stop the ball from reaching the mini goals.

Progressions:

1. Defensive players to attack the mini goals on the half way line.

2. Add in time constraints to ensure attack directness.

3. Limit touches.

4. Red 4 to start higher and show for the ball with one of the defenders passing to her with back to play.

5. Only players for red team in the middle of the pitch can be 4 and 9

6. Drill then turns into a game state scenario attacking the big 11-a-side goal

Coaching points:

1. Work on half space play.

2. Work on overlaps.

3. Work on bounce passes
