Description

The focus of the session is decision making, aiming to keep possession and play the ball wide rather than panic pass and lose the ball.

Circle Pass

SET UP

  • Three players with one ball make a circle.
  • In the middle of the circle, one attacker and one defender.
  • The aim is to pass to the attacker in the middle without the defender intercepting.
  • Players in the middle of the circle must stay in the circle.
  • Players on the outside of the circle must stay outside the circle but can move around with or without the ball.
  • Focus on maintaining possession and looking for the right moment to pass.

Playing wide and maintaining possession out of defence

SET UP

  • 5 v 3.
  • The ball cannot travel through the box in the middle.
  • The team of 5 starts with the ball. Their aim is to get the ball to a player on their team over the 23 line and back to the defensive line.
  • The ball can travel up and back on the same side of the pitch, or it can be transferred across the pitch once it is past the 23 line. The team of 5 can make as many passes as they like before it goes across the 23 and back again.
  • The team of 3 is aiming to win possession and score in the goal.
FOCUS AREAS
  • Play the ball wide out of defence.
  • Attack wide.
  • Look to transfer the ball to disorganise the defence and create space.
  • Maintain possession.

Game with channels and playing zones

SET UP

  • End to end game with channels marked out in the centre of the pitch - middle, left, right - plus end zones for each 23.
  • Two players from each team in each zone. If you have more players, you can overload certain zones, or have roaming players who are allowed in multiple zones.
  • Players cannot leave their allocated zone.
  • The aim is to space out on the pitch and look for the best pass, discouraging players from panic passing straight ahead of them.
  • You can add more rules - Eg. You can't be tackled in the right or left channels, encouraging players to pass the ball wide, carry and look up for the best pass.
