Game 1

Key Factors

Specific practice (6v6)

Linked into game model of creating space/switching of play.

If team in possession, can occupy wide areas

Oppostion can only enter the wide area when the ball does

Progression (if required) Opposition can go out as/when they decide but that may leave central areas exposed? Challenge players.

Organisation

If score a goal central - 1 point

Score a goal wide - 3 points

Key points

Wide players - being positive in 1v1s outwide, can we dominate. Also aggresive/positive starting position.

CMs - Can we be in a position to switch play?

9 - Can we be in a position to help our wide player is required with wall passes?

Game 2 incorporating crossing

Key Factors

Simliar to before but added realism.

If you can dribble through traffic cones a point, if you can dribble through and cross for a goal, 3 points.

Organisation

Now looking at quality/variety of cross and also movement from 9, CM and opposite winger.

Similar points to earlier practice but now more emphasis to crossing and movement.

Ideally, can we attack near post (9) far post (WP) and penalty spot for set back (CM)

4 v 4 into wide areas

Key Factors

4v4 in the middle, now wide players are nutral. Can only score from a cross. Wide players working both sides.

Organisation

Building on from previous pracrtice, if an oppostion player goes out to challenge wide player leaves overload centrally.

Again build on movemnet and areas to attack. Double movements (1 for him, 1 for me) to create that additional yard.

Be aggresive in attack, go in with teh mindset that this is your ball and you are going to score.

Breakout linked into IDP

Key Factors

3v3 + 1, make 4 passes, play out wide to either winger. Working on movement/run of 9, opposite winger and 10/CM arriving.

Progression

Play into 9 whos pinned CB (linked into IDP) sets midfield who plays wide or looks to set wide and spin.

Organisation

Working on movement, variety/quality of crossing.

as soon as team shoots or move breaks down practice resumes centrally, emphasis now also on recovery.

Progressions

Additional recovery defenders once team breaksout.
