Space Allocation

2 Groups of 10 players for 2v1 and 3v1

  • 4 GK optimal (possible with 2 as can run the 3v1 without GKs if required)
  • This is an outcome-based session. The games will end once 15 goals have been scored in both games
  • Competitive: 4 teams:
    • 1st = 1 x fitness effort
    • 2nd = 2 x fitness effort
    • 3rd = 3 x fitness effort
    • 4th = 4 x fitness effort

Warm up/Skills Focus (10 mins)

Warm Up Space (5 minutes on each)


  • Space 1 - Me and my ball time, ball each - working on some core skills (swap balls and connect, 3D on the move, repeat both with pressure from coach)
  • Space 2 - Half doing game day warm up (3 cones, 3 balls). Players on the cones are static, everyone else is dynamic. People on the cones swap when passed to by someone in the middle who then rests on a cone. (1 minute each - Flat first, then bobbles, then 100% game pace) 

Meanwhile, keepers get warmped up

Continuous 3v1



How it works

  • Initially, 3 attackers attack 1 goal. If touches the ball the attack is over (if they win it cleanly  encourage to outlet back to their team)
  • Next attack is started by the next defender (from the team that just attacked) playing the ball to the player who just defended (who is now an attacker). 2 other players join from the attacking team.
  • If the ball goes off or a goal is scored, the attack is over
  • Progression - Make it 3v2 if too easy (but not until lots of goals are scored - the focus is the ball ending up in the goal, not the difficulty)
Looking for:
  • Attack at pace - don't slow the game down if possible, dynamic first touch
  • Connect at pace and avoid contact
  • Defender - can they protect the middle of the pitch and slow the game down?
Rewards
  • Backpost goal = 1 points
  • Into the netting = 2 points
  • First time finish = 3 points

Continuous 2v1 Fast (20 mins)

How it works:
  • 2 attackers (orange) try and score. If defender (blue) touches the ball or the ball goes out the attack is over. If the defender wins the ball cleanly, encourage them to outlet to their team.
  • Next attack starts with a feed from the defender (who is a player waiting from the orange team - 1 orange defender now joins) to the blue player who just defended the previous attack. An extra attacker joins from the blue team to make a 2 v1 in the other direction 

Looking for:

  • Ability to connect in the circle and avoid contact
  • Low body position around the goal and anticipating space to move to to get high quality goal shot opportunity
  • Defender - Get body on line to defend both players at once

Progression:

  • Remove mini circle - everywhere is the D
  • 2v2 - team that scores is out, defending team stays in until they score

PCA, 3v3 & Shooting

3v3: 3 players on cones are feeders for 5 rounds (can pass between themselves as well until a good option arises)

  • If they pass the ball in and the receiver passes it back, that player on the cone can join to make it a 4v3
Shooting
  • Pass to player infront of cone wall, player turns and shoots across goal, player looks for deflection (everyone then follows the ball & deflector joins the back of the queue)
