Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): 10th 2v1 Technical Drill (Start Time: 2025-11-10 17:30:00)

2v1 Technique Exercise15 mins

Activity: Dribbling and Passing (2v1 Technical Progression)

Equipment:

• 1 ball per pair

• Cones

• Small goals

Drill A – Warm-Up: Passing Between Partners

• Players control, stop, pass, and move to find free space.

• Players orient their control while moving, pass, and again move into free space.

Drill B – Passing in Two Lines

• Players pass the ball between cones. After passing, they run around the next cone and return, switching lines each time.

• Same as before, but at the end of the line, players finish the action with a shot on goal.

Drill C – Two Lines with Defender

• Players start at the red cones and must dribble the ball toward the yellow cone goals.

• A defender appears in the middle to challenge them.

• If the defender wins the ball, they switch roles with the attacker (the defender joins the attacking line, and the attacker becomes the new defender).

Drill D – 2v1 and Finish

• Players start again from the red cones, attacking the goal.

• One defender (from a yellow cone) comes out from the side of the goal to prevent the attack.

• If the defender wins the ball, they join the attacking line, and the attacker they stole from becomes the new defender.

Activity Objectives and Rules:

• Develop dribbling, control, passing, and finishing under pressure.

• Encourage quick decisions in 2v1 situations.

Progression:

• Reduce the distance between cones or make the attacking zone smaller to increase difficulty.

Small-Sided Game 2v1 (4players) 10 mins

Small-Sided Game: 2v1 Transition (4 Players)
Duration: 3-minute games
Equipment: Cones, 2 small goals, bibs, balls

Setup:

• Set up two small goals opposite each other.

• Organize 4 players: 2 attackers (Team Purple) and 2 defenders (Team White).

• Only 3 players are on the field at a time — 2 attackers vs 1 defender.

• The fourth player waits outside the field, ready to rotate in.

How to Play:

• The game starts with two Purple players attacking against one White defender.

• The attacking team (Purple) tries to score on either goal.

• If the attackers score or lose possession/make a mistake, the player who scored or made the mistake rotates out.

• The waiting player from the other team (White) enters the field, switching the play — now it’s 2 White attackers vs 1 Purple defender.

Objective:

• Improve attacking decision-making in overload situations (2v1).

• Develop quick transition from attack to defense.

• Encourage teamwork and communication.

Rules:

• Play continuously for 3 minutes.

• Teams keep track of goals scored.

Progressions:

• Limit the number of touches (e.g., 3-touch maximum).

• Increase to 3v2 or 3v3 transition game as players improve.
