Organization:

3v2 Building the attack (switch focus)


Setup

Divide the field in half (have 2 going on at the same time)

Have the 2 small nets wide facing inside on each half (total 4 nets or gates)

Reds - Building the attack - switch the field when one side is overloaded

Blue  - Opposition attackers

Black - Coaches/GKs or add 4th player 

Nets - represent the 2 Half spaces/wide 7/11/9 

Objective

Blue players are trying to hit the nets

White players are trying to get the ball and dribble past the end line

Ball always starts from the coach (wait for them to get into their positions)

White players have to give space just as they do in a game with the retreat line

Coaching Points

- 2 CBs spread out to provide Width

- #6 works as a Pivot and option in the middle

- Create passing lanes by moving between lines and gaps of defenders

Tech

- Receive the ball opening your body to see the field

- Head up to see the options before and after 1st touch

- Good strong passes with the inside of the foot, proper weight
