1v1 Duels

Players face off against one another in a 1v1 game.  This game will last for 1 minute total.  Players in possession look to beat their partner, they can combine with team mates on the outside who have 2 touch, or look to beat the player themselves.  After 1 minute rotate the players out and continue the game.  After 3 minutes rotate who they are playing.

Coaching Points

  • Encourage the defending to be high intensity to allow the player on the ball no time to get their head up
  • Understand when to firmly press the ball to win it and when to set body up to block.
Progressions
  • Make the game 2v2 duels and players on the outside play for both teams now.  As the picture has changed the players need to understand when to press man to man and when to go zone to zone.

Press to Win or Disrupt

Team in possession looks to complete 3-5 passes based on your teams skill level and pass into the opposite side.  Every time they do this they get 1 point.  The team who is pressing, looks to either win the ball or disrupt the play.  If they win the ball they look to score in the small mini goal for 3 points, if they disrupt the team i.e. they kick it out of bounds the team in possession lose 1 point. Play for 3 minutes and then rotate who the 4 defenders are.

Coaching Points

  • Intensity to press and run through the ball
  • Do not allow the player on the ball any time to build confidence
  • ensure that as a 2 you are impacting the play and forcing turnovers, tackles and mistakes
Progressions
  • Increase or reduce the pass count for the team in possession 
  • Allow a player from the opposite side of the grid to come into the other half to make a 5v2

4v2 to goal scenario

Red team look to get the ball and complete 3 passes before breaking out to score in a 4v2.  The blue team are looking to press and disrupt any play, if they win the ball they look to score in the goal straight away for 3 points, they can disrupt the opponent to cause a turnover.  After the ball is dead 4 new red players enter the field.  Blues rotate but continue to defend.  Play for 4 minutes and keep overall score.

Coaching Points

  • If the press is beat be read to try and disrupt a key pass that could hurt us defensively
  • Work together to squeeze space
