MDG (15 mins)

Organisation:

4v4 with 2 target players each.

Midfield 4 try and play into the feet of their target players to get a point. Once the target has the ball, they can play back into one of the midfield 4 who attack the other way to try and get it into the feet

of the opposite target player. The team without the ball should try to win it back and cut off the ball into the targets. The team with the ball should try and work the ball around by drawing in the opposition players to create overloads to exploit.

Progression

Whoever plays the ball into the No.10 should go and replace that player.

A defending player can drop into the No.10 target zone and manmark, forcing more movement from the No.10

The No.10 can drop out of the target zone to receive the ball and either dribble into the target zone to score.

Key Factors:

Create space - check away and back again to lose marker or

make diagonal runs to shake off defenders.

Movement to receive and support play

Angles and distances

Awareness of space

Receive the ball on the half turn in order to try to go forward. If defender m arks close, keep possession.

Quality of pass
