    Method:

    • Attacking players (Green) try to run through one of the red gates

    • Max 20 seconds. If player goes outside the pitch the defender wins
    • Keep score

    Progression 1: Give the attacker a ball

    Coaching Points:

    • Defending player must have open body shape, side on
    • Block one gate and force the player towards the opposite gate
    • Quick movement towards player, then slow down & get lower as they get closer
    • The closer the attacker gets to the gate, the closer the defender gets to them

    2 V 2, 3 v 3 (20 min)

    Method:

    • On coaches call, players working in 2's, run around cone then into the centre to play 2v2
    • Try score in one of the two goals
    • Coach passes ball into certain area

    Note: Vary the place coach pass ball in from and where the players run from/to

    Coaching Points:

    • If team that gets ball loose it, they must try to transition to defend
    • Team that is defending puts 'pressure' on ball, must NOT DIVE IN, side on body shape, block pass to other player, show attacker one side.
    • Other defender offers 'cover'.
    • If playing 3v3, third player offers 'balance' so keeps gap between 'cover' player small
    • Communication between players
    • Attacking players - can they create space - width & depth
