Warm-up:3v1 rondo - players must move the ball with pace on the floor avoiding the defender in the middle. Players on the sides of the square must always support the team mates creating triangles on the field. If defender recovers the ball, switch spots with player who lost the ball.

Variation:

- players now playing one touch

- Competition round: each square choose one defender and send to an opposite square to play against them.

Time:10-15 min

Game of two zones. Two offensive players try to build the play against one defender. They also have a player they can use to recycle the play when in pressure. They need to cross the line with the ball and then, in the second half of the field, they try to score against one more defender and the goalie. The whole game is about:

- moving to create space

- moving with the ball to attract the player and then realizing it

- be aware where is the space on the field and use it

* If you don't have a lot of players, make a two lines for the offensive players, and switch when the ball goes out

* If you have big numbers (+than 10) you can make two fields, maybe scoring in the small goals.

Time: 15-18 min

Small sided game: we play a 5v5 in three different zones (2v1/2v2/1v2).

Teams will have a 2v1 in their Defense Zone. They need to try to build the play and go to the middle zone. The defense player zone can get in the middle zone if: they find a pass to a Middle zone player, or if they dribble the ball up and get inside that zone.

Same things happens with the middle zone players: they can go to the finishing zone if they dribble the ball up and cross the line, or if they find a pass to a team mate and make a run.

If team loses the ball, players need to drop back to the original zone.

* If you dont have the numbers(10 players) you can always do a 2v1/1v1+1neutral/1v2 or even a 1v1 in the middle zone.

Coaching points: can we move with the ball to use the space?; can we move without the ball to create space to our team mate?; can we be ready to receive and play the ball all the time?

Time:15-20 min
