Organization: 20*20 grid split into 8, 5*5 smaller grids in the middle two channels and two 20*5 endzones. Two different colored pinnies. Balls along the outside. 4 red and 4 blue in each of the endzones. 12-16 players; one player per smaller 5*5 grid in the middle two channels, defending as lines.
Activity: Players look to score by playing through a line of defenders into their waiting teammates in the endzone. Teams keep possession and look to find their teammates once again. Upon regaining possession, the opposition look to do the same. Play a game to five.
Coaching Points:
1. First defender principles revisited - pressure, angle/speed of approach, ball side/goal side, cues to pressure.
2. Second defender principles - angle/distance of cover; play off 1st defender shoulder. Ball side/goal side.
3. Compactness
4. Showing restraint.
5. Cues to win the ball - bad touch, bad pass, back to 1st defender.
6. Communication.
Questions: How do we support our teammates? Where is the priority when defending? How can we move within our zone when defending? What is our shape when defending centrally? Wide?

Organization: 15*10 yard grid set on top of the GK box. One large goal and two small goals set up near half. Two servers on either side of the grid. 4v2 inside the grid with a recovery defender on a cone in between the small goals. Supply of balls with each server.
Activity: 4v2 defending - The server passes to one of the attackers in red who attack 4v2 against the blue defenders. A third recovery defender enters the grid. Objective is to score on the large goal. Defenders can win the ball and counter on the small goals. All restarts with the servers.
Coaching Points:
Closest player presses the ball - quick early pressure.
Close down quickly, slow down and arrive at a good approach distance.
Body position - side on / deflect away from goal.
Show restraint. Tackle when there is an opportunity to do so. Delay when numbers down.
Distance / angle of support for the 1st defender. Defenders should be a position to see both attackers.
Recovering defender must decide whether to win the ball or how best to support his teammates.
Communication.

Organization: 50*40 field (Quarter field at PG). Supply of balls along the outside and in the goals.
Activity: 2 teams - Play 6v6 (including GK). LOTG apply, including retreat line. Each team plays 1-2-1-2. Perhaps some coaching over, but otherwise allow for free play. Award an extra point for every successful attempt (even if just wide) or shot on goal (even if saved). Teams manage substitutions.
Coaching Points: Reinforce key factors and objectives from the session.
