Warm Up (15 mins)

Three Warm-Up stations - A, B, C
*Each group will perform their station for 4 minutes with a 1 minute rest and rotate 
A>B>C>A*

Station A - Players will pass the ball clockwise and follow their pass.  After two minutes the coach will blow a whistle and they will go counter-clockwise for the remaining 2 minutes.  
Coaching Points:  Firm Pass to the back foot, opening up at the right time, scanning over their shoulder before getting the ball. Changing speed after making the pass. 

Station B - Players will work on plyometrics and agility ladder. Players will hop with both feet over the 3 initial hurdles and then proceed to working on the agility ladder doing whatever footwork they think it's beneficial. It's important for the player to switch up their footwork pattern every time on the agility ladder.  Players will perform this for 4 minutes and then rotate. 

Station C - Players will dribble the ball around the mannequins and then do a wall pass with the next player in line. 
It's very important for the players to dribble as quickly as possible, turn efficiently and change speed while changing direction and making sure they give a good firm pass and create a good angle for the return wall pass for the next player in line.

3rd man Passing (10 mins)

Players that play the 9,10,8,6 will rotate as the two players in the middle. 
It's important for the players in the middle to understand that they are to be extremely focused when to check for the entry ball and prepare their body to disguise the third man action.  

Players are the base will focus on passing the ball firm into the player's back foot and make sure they are ready to time their movement for the third man action.  Once they receive the ball and have to dribble across it's important to make sure we dribble at pace and with intention.

Flying Changes

Players will be divided into two teams. One team will attack with 3 players while the other will defend with 2 players.  It's important that the team attacking uses their numerical advantage to find the open man and get a good shot.  The attacking team only has 6 seconds to score, if the defending team steals the ball then they can transition towards the attacking team's goal. Once the play is done the 5 players on the field have to sprint out of the field before the next group can go on coach's whistle.  

After 4 minutes the attacking team will defend with two and the defending team will attack with three.  Both teams will get to attack twice.  Goals will be tallied and there will be a winner for the activity. 

Coaching Points:

Pushing the ball up the field with intention and speed, making decoy runs and creating passing lanes to exploit the numerical advantage offensively.  Defensively delay and wait for the right moment to match up and prevent the goal scoring chance.
