1v1 Crossing (5 mins)

DESCRIPTION:

This session involves six goals, and a 4v4 in the central area, with a 1v1 in each of the wide areas (14 Players in total). The game sees a 4v4 take place with the simple intention of scoring, if the ball goes wide, the 1v1 is fixed, and the wide player is looking to create a crossing moment if the opportunity arises. Because the pressure on the wide player will likely be quite imminent, we will see a cross from multiple angles and situations. The practice can be manipulated by using the wide goals, this can be done by allowing the wide player to score in small wide goals if they win the 1v1, these goals should be worth less than the central goals.

 

Coaching Detail:

  • Movement will be key, can our players make movements from in to out when the session progresses?
  • Can attacking players play high to allow as much space in the session as possible

Progression: 

  • Allow attacking players to run into the wide area to create a 2v1
  • Once a goal has been scored, allow the team who has scored to grab a ball and go 1v1 in the wide area to try and double up their goal.

Conditions:

  • 2 Touch Passing

  • The Cross has to be within 3 Touches

Equipment:

  •  12 Mini Cones
  •  4 Mini Goals
  •  2 Medium-Sized Goals
  •  5 Coloured Bibs
  •  Bag of balls
Area:
  • 25m X 18m

Players:

  • 4v4 and 1v1 in wide areas
Scoring System:
  • 2 Points for goals from crosses
  • 1 Point for goals from 1v1 in wide areas

3 Lane 4v4+4 SSG (10 mins)

DESCRIPTION: 

This is a simple 4v4+4 setup, where the pitch is divided into three lanes. In order to score a team must have a body in all three lanes. This will look to create balance, width and control in possession. From this players should be able to see how it is possible to play through the opponent's lines using diagonal passes through the spaces left between the opponent's shape.  

 

Coaching Detail: 

  • Positional rotations will be key

  • Use +4s to create overloads

Progressions: 

  • Remove zones to see transferability
  • One touch in wide areas
  • The ball must be passed forward

Challenges: 

  • In Possession: Pick up spaces between opponent lines. Find these passing lanes that can progress possession
  • Out of Possession: Move out of the when we haven't got the ball. Can we defend in a maximum of two lanes?

Equipment: 

  • 3 Sets of 4 Bibs
  • 12 Mini Cones
  • 2 Medium-sized Goals
  • Bag of Balls
Area:
  • 40m X 30m

Players: 

  • 3 Teams of 4

Scoring System:

  • Scoring as normal
