Practice (10 mins)

Equipment

Flat markers to mark out playing area.

Bibs

Supply of footballs  near the sides of the pitches. 

3 players in "intercepting zone"

3-4 players in "creating zone"

Retaining the ball to play forward or behind the defender..

One group (reds) must retain the ball for x passes (example 5 passes for team of 4 dependant on ability) to get a point or play a forward ball to a player in the other zone to get a point at any time. (3v1 or 4v1 in end zones, dependant on available numbers)

Alternate sides to restart when ball is dead.

Team in the middle (blues) sends one player in to press the ball and just pass the ball to their team mates in the middle to pass the ball to the mini goal. 

Remaining blues in the middle zone try to intercept or block the forward pass, if they intercept - they play the pass to a mini goal or a coach on the sides.

If ball goes to other side, another player from blues then presses whilst the blue player from previous zone then drops into the middle zone.

Coaching points

  • Don't force the pass
  • Use questioning to develop player understanding (when can you play a forward pass to the other zone)
  • If you see the forward pass, don't turn it down. 
  • Be patient in possession, keep it to play forward - if the pass isn't on - move into space with the ball.
  • Get seen, always available for a pass. 
  • Receiving group, always be available for a through ball.

Equipment.

2 x goals & Goalkeeper gloves

watch & Bibs 

8 - 10 players - can scale, one team will have will have an overload (10 players would involve two teams of 4, with one team able to use the goalkeepers which will be 6v4 overload)

1 team (yellow bibs) - possession team, keep the ball using the goalkeepers / target players.

Other team (red bibs) if they win ball back, they can score in either goal. If they score they become the team in possession (using the target players / goalkeepers) - Scoring earns you possession, and that team that wins possession tries to keep possession to the end of the 6 minute game.

  • 6 minute game (target is 3x 6 minute games)
  • Scoring earns you possession. 
  • The team that has the possession at the end of the 6 minutes wins the game.
  • If one team puts the ball out of play, it can be passed or dribbled back in by the other team from the place it left the pitch. (no corners)
