SETUP.

  • DEFENSIVE TEAM, 7 PLAYERS (GK, BACK 4 AND 2 6's) VS ATTACKING TEAM, 7 PLAYERS (CB, 6, FULLBACKS, WIDE PLAYERS AND STRIKER).
  • 1 GOAL.
  • OFFSIDE IS ON.
RULES FOR DEFENDING TEAM.

  • STAY TIGHT AND NARROW.
  • BLOCK THE PATH TO GOAL.
  • PLAY HIGH OUTSIDE THE BOX OR ON THE EDGE. (DON'T ALLOW THE OPPOSITION TO PUSH YOU INTO THE BOX).
  • IF YOU DECIDE TO PRESS THE BALL, MAKE SURE IT'S ONLY ONE PLAYER PRESSING AND THE REST ARE MARKING OR BLOCKING PASSING LANES.
  • IF YOU WIN THE BALL, GET WIDE (CB's WIDE IN THE BOX) STRETCH PLAY AND COMBINE 6 PASSES TO WIN 1 POINT. 
  • DESPITE SITTING NARROW AND TIGHT WE NEED TO WIN THE BALL, READ THE GAME BEFORE DIVING TO INTERCEPT AND BE AWARE THAT YOU DO NOT LEAVE ANY SPACE BEHIND WHERE THE OPPOSITION CAN RUN INTO.
RULES FOR ATTACKING TEAM.

  • PLAY ALWAYS STARTS WITH THE CB.
  • UNLIMITED PASSES.
  • BE CREATIVE IN YOUR RUNS
  • UNDERSTAND YOUR TEAMMATES MOVEMENT.
  • WIDE PLAYERS AND STRIKER TUCK IN BETWEEN THE BACK FOUR.
  • FULLBACKS ARE KEY AND SHOULD BE MOBILE AND READY TO MOVE TO RECEIVE, SUPPORT AND CREATE AN ATTACK.
  • PUSHING THE FULLBACKS WIDE WILL CREATE MORE SPACE AND CAN BE VITAL WHEN SWITCHING PLAY.
  • WIDE PLAYERS BE ON YOUR TOES CREATE UNDERLAPPING MOVEMENT THAT CAN DECEIVE THE OPPOSITION OR AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE FULLBACKS TO PASS THE BALL.
  • WHEN WE ATTACK BE MORE VERSATILE, LOOK TO PASS INTO FEET BUT ALSO SPACE. WHICH AREA CAN WE EXPLOIT? THIS CAN HELP US IN TERMS OF BUILDING PLAY.

COACHING POINTS.

  • IF THE WIDE PLAYERS MOVE AND LEAVE THE SPACE IN BETWEEN THE FULLBACK AND CENTRE BACK UNOCCUPIED, THEY MUST BE READY TO STAY WIDE, RECEIVE AND PREPARE TO USE THE FULLBACK TO HELP CREATE THE ATTACK. (DECISION MAKING, DO I DRIVE OR USE SUPPORT?).
  • 6 AND CENTRE BACK ARE ALWAYS PIVOTING AND HELPING THE TEAM IN RETAINING POSSESSION WHEN PRESSED. IF THE FULLBACKS SEE THAT THESE TWO PLAYERS ARE PRESSED THEY MUST DROP OFF TO OFFER A PASS IN SPACE. (DECISION MAKING, AM I IN THE RIGHT SPACE TO RECEIVE THE BALL? CAN I DRIVE FORWARD OR SWITCH PLAY TO CREATE AN ATTACK WHEN I RECEIVE THE BALL?, ARE THE WIDE PLAYERS MOVING AWAY FROM THE CENTRE TO OFFER SUPPORT?).
  • 1 PLAYER PRESS THE BALL THE OTHERS PRESS THE SPACE AND BLOCK PASSING LANES. WE MUST READ THE GAME TO KNOW WHEN TO MOVE. (DECISION MAKING, IF I MOVE WHAT SPACE AM I LEAVING BEHIND?, WHO IS COVERING THAT SPACE?).
  • THE STRIKER MUST BE MOBILE IN GOING DEEP TO SUPPORT AND GOING TO ATTACK. COMING TO SUPPORT CAN HELP TO HOLD UP PLAY WHILE OTHER PLAYERS CREATE SPACE, IT WILL ALSO ATTRACT THE OPPOSITION TO PRESS THE BALL AND THEREFORE LEAVING SPACE UNOCCUPIED. (DECISION MAKING, WHEN DO I GO TO SUPPORT?, WHERE MIGHT THE NEXT PASS BE?).
  • FULLBACKS BE READY TO EITHER SUPPORT OR ATTACK. ALWAYS START WIDE, IF THE WIDE PLAYERS KEEP OCCUPYING THE SPACE IN BETWEEN THE FULLBACKS AND THE CENTRE BACKS, DRIVE WIDE OR CREATE AN ATTACK BY CROSSING THE BALL INTO AN AREA. IF THE WIDE PLAYERS GO WIDE, OFFER SUPPORT TO PLAY DOWN THE LINE OR UNDERLAP. (DECISION MAKING, HOW IS MY MOVEMENT HELPING THE TEAM?_.
