Purpose:

The session is a good work out to help teams experiment with angles and different heights of playing a ball into the box from the wings. The crossers are unopposed so they can concentrate on the technique and get good crosses in. It’s a fast and continuous session.

Set Up:

1) 40 x 30 area with a five yard crossing zone on one side of the field

2) Three teams 3

3) Two players on the field, the third on the side

Rules:

The server plays the ball to the attacking pair, who must get the ball to the crossing zone for a cross into the two attackers. After the attack the team defends and the previous defenders break out to attack the other end. You may start without GKs, and progress to having GKs once the players start finishing. Play to a certain number of goals or minutes.
