Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Attacking patterns/ movement

Passing patterns (15 mins)

Warm Up:

A. (Rondos) - 5v2/4v2/3v2 in multiple groups

-types of passes (P1,P2, P3)

B. Passing movements:

Balls go from one side to other. (Red to Red)

1) (Red line)- wide player runs in and goes behind

2) (green line) - wide player brings def. in/ "Spin out" behind

+ wide player drops/3rd man run behind (blue lines)

3) (Red Line)- wide player starts from inside, opening up to receive ball

Coaching Points:

-Timing of runs

P1 Pass- split two defenders with fwd pass that breaks line

P2 Pass- beats line of defender (outside) and first touch breaks line (#3)

P3 Pass-possession passes, dont break any lines

P0 pass- ball over the top to break lines

-Timing of movement, create seperation at the right moment
