Technical Drill- Part 2

Key Factors

This drill is designed to build on the previous unoppose practice and encroauge decision making and the ability to dominate in 1v1 situations.

Organisation

The lay out for this drill is the same as the previous drill. In this progression there is a defender in each of the side channels and at the end of the central channel, and at each of these is a small goal.

The players begin as previous, with 3 going at a time and crossing the central channel having to hit both sides of the channel. When they get to the end of the channel, one player moves into each of the side channels and one attacks the central goals. They will battle with the defenders in a 1v1 before trying to score in one of the goals.

Once the play has been completed, the attacking players become the defenders and the defenders get the balls and return to the back of the line.

Skill Drill- Set Up 2

Key Factors

This drill builds on the work of the previous drill, but requires more decision making utilising the overloads.

Organisation

This drill begins in the same way, with a red player playing a diagonal ball across to one of the blue players. As soon as the recieving player touches the ball, they and one other blue player attack to create a 2v1 against the passing red player (they must cross the half way line before shooting).

As soon as the blue players shot is in or out, two reds enter the field with a ball to create a 3v2 agasint the two blue players. Thy attack the blue goal and must be over the half way line before they can shoot.

Once this 3v2 is over, everyone returns to their spot and the session begins again.

Play 3/4 minutes and then swap roles.
