Warm-up Game (15 mins)

Organization:  Using half of 1/4 pitch, with net at one end.  Approx 15-17 players

Activity:  Play begins 9v1 (8+goalie versus 1 defender) and pass out from goalie.  Every 3 passes defending team sends out 1 defender.  Attacking team will get points for as many defenders that enter play before possession is lost.  If defenders win ball they can try to score on net, if possession is lost AND defenders score, attackers loose all their points.  If attacking team can make 3 passes with all defenders in play, then get an additional point for each pass after that.  Give each team equal opportunity to be attacking team.  

Coaching Points:

Move the ball forwards, backwards, and switching, create 360 support of ball using angles/traingles and avoid square passes

Field awareness. Create/Find numerical superiority 

Movement off the ball to create proper shape and support.

Technical: Receiving with the front foot and instep when possible.  Weight & accuracy

Awareness - where are the defenders, where is open space, where is support?

SSG (20 mins)

Organization: Divide pitch into 3 zones, middle slightly larger. 14-16 players.

Activity: 2 teams, 6v6/7v7, use neutral if odd numbers. Players play a SSG with zones in which players begin in one of 3 zones (ie 2 forwards in attacking 3rd, 3 midfielders in central 3rd, and 2 defenders in defensive 3rd). Players advance the ball by passing through zones to score in opponents net (not allowed to dribble through zones). If player makes successful pass into next zone, they may advance to that zone to support the play (if teams possession lost and opponent completes a pass, that player must return to original zone). Progression: Free play
