Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Build up play from Defence

Screen 1

Defence - The Defence starts with the ball after 2 or 3 passes in their 3rd , they should transfer the ball into midfield.Once the ball is played in defence, the pressure from the yellow defender will take place to close the ball down.Once the ball is played into Midfield the yellow defender is not aloud to go into the midfield quarter.

Midfield - The midfielders should then receive the ball and make 2 or 3 passes between them before transferring the ball in to the attackers.Once the ball is in midfield the 2 yellow defenders will look to close the ball down as quickly as possible.

Attack - Once the ball has been played into the attackers the 2 yellow defenders should look to retract and recover and try and get the ball back.The attackers should look to create space and split the defenders.Once the ball has been played into the attackers one of the midfielders will overload into the final 3rd to create a 3 v 2 situation.They should look to create a situation were they should finish off with a 1 touch finish.

Coaching points:

- Communication

-Positioning

-Receiving on the half turn

-Moving the ball quickly

Progression:

-Add more Defenders

Add extra ball once the ball has gone into midfield , defence should keep it until the midfield is set again.

After a few times you should see that communication is shown and also 2 touch passing will be used to create more space and goal scoring opportuinities
