Stuck in the mud (10 mins)

The attackers are dribbling around in the 18 yard box. The defender is chasing the attackers and tries to touch the ball, with the feet, from one of an attackers. If the defender touches the ball the attacker pick up the ball and hold it above his head. The attacker will also spread his legs. The attacker got "stuck in the mud". The other attackers, who are not stuck in the mud can save their teammate by dribbling the ball through the opened legs. When this has happened the player who was stuck in the mud drops the ball and is dribbling around in the 18 yard box again.

The game is over after 60 seconds or when all the attackers are stuck in the mud

Coaching remarks attackers

- Dribble around inside the circle, keep the ball close so you can keep it away from the defender

- Do not get stuck in the corner, always try to dribble to open space

- When the defender attacks you, try to shield the ball and dribble away from the defender

- If you know a move, use this move to keep the ball away from the defender

Coaching remarks defender

- When you chase down an attacker, do not stop until you touch the ball from him

SB1: Barcelona (15 mins)

Need: 1 ball, 4 cones.

Grab a soccer ball and find yourself a little bit of space. A 5 by 5 yards box is enough space!Every skill in the list below you will do for 45 seconds. After each skill you have a 15 second break.

1. Toe touches (touches)

2. Boxing touches (touches)

3. Toe touches moving (touches)

4. Boxing touches moving (touches)

5. Toe touches circle (touches)

6. Boxing touches circle (touches)

7. Inside Outside touches - right (touches)

8. Inside Outside touches - left (touches)

9. Outside Inside Alternate touches (touches)

10. Outside touches - alternate (touches)

Our first focus is to do the touches right. Make the ball go exactly where you want it to go. When that goes well, increase your pace and keep increasing your pace. The goal in the 45 second work time is to make a couple of mistakes because you are doing the skills just a little quicker than you are capable off. This way you are actually working on improving. Do NOT go at a steady pace you are able to pull off for 45 seconds. If you are not losing control at some point in the 45 seconds, you are NOT pushing yourself hard enough.

1v1 Madness (15 mins)

Attacker dribbles arround in the red box. There is one defender, who tries to steal the ball from his partner. The attacker can beat the defender or look for a pass to one of the 6 players on the outside (blue cones). After the pass they switch positions. The defender has to stay in the red box, so the attacker gets some space to dribble at the defender.

Coaching Remarks

- 4 steps of beating a defender ( dribble with speed, fake out, go around, seperate)

- Don't dribble until you lose the ball. Take on a defender, beat them and find a passing option.

- Call names when passing so the player expects the ball

Game

We play multiple games of 75 seconds. When the time is up every player who is on defense gets a point. At the end the players will do a number of burpees for every point they have. The goal of each player should be to not have any points.
