Set Up: Two even numbered teams. (3v3) in a 30x20 central zone with one receiving player in each receiving zone. (3) 2 yard gates in each receiving zone.

Objective: The team in possession attempts to pass to their teammate through one of the 3 gates to score a point. If the defending team win possession, they will transition to attack by attempting to pass through their target gates to a teammate.

Focus: Defensive shape and defending passing lanes. Pressure player (1st man in), Cover player (2nd man in supporting on an angle), and Balance player who covers space furthest from the ball incase the play is switched.

Transition to a 4v4. Have the passing player switch out with a teammate behind the gates after every goal. Implement offsides.
