Football/Soccer Session (Advanced): 2 v 2 + 2 Target Players (Rondo)

Part 1 (10 mins)

The yellow team has 1 minute to play against the blue team in the central area.

The team in possession try to work the ball from each target player to another. If the yellow team has possession they look to create an overload by passing to the target players on the outside of the rectangular area. The rule of the game is that they cannot continuously pass the ball to the same target player. If the yellow team play to target player 1, they look to transition and play the ball to target player 2. For instance, If the ball is played to target player 1 the team in possession must try and get the ball to target player 2 before playing back to target player 1.

So if your team wins possession (blue/yellow) they can pass the ball to any target player. For example, if blue regain possession and they pass to target player 2 they must try to work the ball and pass to target player 1 before they can then play to target player 2.

After 1 minute - the target players switch with either the blue or yellow team and they become the target players.

The aim of the game is to focus on turning, dribbling and dominating in 1v1 scenarios. By having the game in a tighter area it aims to focus on player's conditioning. This game is designed to be played at a high intensity.
