Create Video:

5v5+4 break out game (20 mins)

Organisation:

- 2 teams of 5, 1 team of 4

- 2 mini goals and 1 normal goal with a gk

- Pitch split in 2 with the possession game in the bottom half and the goalscoring area in the top half

5v5+2 in the possession grid - one team designated as the in possession team who try to combine and find the overload to complete 3 passes before switching the ball out to one of the floating players outside the goalscoring zone.

Once the ball is bounced off a floating player, 2 attacking players can break out to try and score and 1 player can break out to try and defend

Conditions:

If the defending team wins possession, they can score in the mini goals

Progressions/regresssions:

- Limit the number of touches on the ball

- Add/Subtract the number of passes allowed before the switch out

- Add/subtract the number of players breaking out

Time:

4x5 min blocks with attacking and defending team switching roles at the end of each block and also a progression thrown in.

Screen 3 (30 mins)

Organisation:

7v7+1 SSG with focus on creating goalscoring opportunities in the final third

I will be managing the yellows and coaching the blues

The yellows will set up with a goalkeeper, back 4 and midfield 2.

The blues will set up with a midfield 3, 2 wingers and a centre forwards

There will also be a floating player who plays on the team in possession

Conditions:

- Play will always start with the blue team

- If the yellows win back possession, they must combine to attack the mini goals

Coaching points:

- Find the overload

- If wingers are in a 1v1 situation, encourage to get at the full back

- If there is a sight on goal - shoot!

- Midfield rotations to disorganise the opposition

- Movement of the centre forward - runs beyond the last line
- Drop into the midfield to create an overload and also try and suck a centre half in to create a space in behind for winger/midfielder to run into

- Movement of midfield - Can one of them become an attacking full back/find pockets in the half spaces?

Time:

4x8 minute blocks with different scenarios being implemented at the end of each block
