3v2 match

Organisation

Area: 30 x 40 with three goals, one large goal with GK and 2 small goals, and two teams.

Instructions

Teams start 5 yards from the corner as shown. The coach has all the balls.

1. Start with 3v2. The coach serves in a ball for the attacking three. Two defenders from the opposite team attempt to win the ball.

2. Possession changes hands when: A shot is taken or scored, the ball is won by the two defenders or the ball is kicked out of bounds.

3. As soon as the exercise is over, the attacking three quickly get off the field. They are replaced by two players from their team who become defenders.

4. The defending two are joined by a team-mate. If the defending two win the ball, they must now pass to the oncoming third player.

5. This oncoming player must always start the exercise in the 3v2. If the ball is scored or shot out of bounds, the coach will pass a ball to the oncoming third player.

Coaching points

This exercise is hectic and challenges everyone’s mental awareness. Know when to pass when to take a player on. Communicate. Make the extra player count.
