2 Square Ball Mastery (15 mins)

Activity Name: 2 box ball mastery
Activity Description: Arrange players in opposite corners. Maximum 4 per corner. 5 per corner for higher level/fast moving groups. For groups of more than 10 setup 2 areas. Make sure to put your cones far enough apart to give space to dribble- 5ft or more. One player per corner dribbles n the direction shown- all players keep going until they return back to the start cone. Have the next one go when the player before turns the corner. Do 2-3 variations per skill. Then have a competition – for groups with 2-3 players in each corner players only go on coaches command. First player to the next corner gets a point. Next players go on the coaches command. Repeat until a player gets to a set number. For lower number groups with just 1 player in each corner make it a race all the way around the squares back to the start cone. Coach will instruct players which skill set to use. Make sure to demonstrate each different skill set.
Progression / Variation: Possibilities are but not limited too- 1: dribble, 2: toe taps all the way or more advanced players can do toe taps forwards for a section then rotate at the cone and do them backwards then rotate and go forwards- keep switching at each cone till they return, 3: soccer boxes all the way or more advanced can do forward backwards, 4: single cuts (inside/outside) right foot, 5: single cuts (inside/outside) left foot, 6: double cuts (outside left- inside left- outside right- inside right), 7: pull pushes with lace and sole switch feet,8: Sole rolls with both feet- if going in the direction shown players should start left foot then at the cone right foot, 9: sole roll with a toe tap with the opposite foot, 10: dribble in and then sole delay back then head to the next cone, 11: L turns. Should you need more you can add in attacking moves and/or scoops etc.

Coaching Points- Look to utilize every part of the foot when dribbling, lots of touches and soft touches when doing taps, boxes, cuts, pull pushes. Light and bouncy and on our toes. Don't cross feet when doing sole rolls. Any moves the touch outwards needs to be a positive direct touch toward next cone.

1v1 Attacking moves & footskills circuit (20 mins)

Activity Name- 1v1 attacking skills/ footwork circuit.
Activity Description- Player A starts with the ball and dribbles forward and performs and attacking move on the cones then dribbles round the cone on the byline, at the same time player B runs out and does quick feet/ or footwork exercises in the cones/ladder, runs around the cone on the halfway line, Player A passes across to Player B who goes 1v1 to try and score in the goal. Players can switch groups after each turn. For groups of 6 or more set up the same in the other half.
Progressions/ Variations- Either have players pick their own attacking moves or work through set ones- (Fake, Scissors, Step over, L turn, Ronaldo Chop, Double Touch, Maradona turn). Different footwork patterns through the cones- quick feet in each gap, 2 shuffles in a jockey motion to weave through, backwards jockeying, hopping, crisscross switches with the feet.
Coaching points- Dribble at pace but with close quick control, try to incorporate the moves when beating the defender to open up space to shoot. When defending remind and reinforce the 4 Ps of defending.

Numbers up pyramid (15 mins)

Activity Name- Numbers up attacking pyramid.
Activity Description- Arrange players as shown with increasing numbers in each row. 1 ball per row. First player comes out to attack has five seconds to score, once their turn is done they spin and defend against the pair of players. After this turn finishes the original single player leaves the court and the pair stay on to defend, keep going in this manner until you reach 4v3. Should the numbers be lower you can have the defenders that leave the court quickly join the row of 3/4. Once complete have players switch up which row they start on. Have two wide goals for defenders to attack should they win the ball

Progression/ Variations- Flip the pyramid and play an overload in defense instead if you feel the players need a different challenge.
Coaching points- -Good communication -Using rotations to beat the defensive lines. -Futsal techniques. - Using the extra player and attacking quick before the defenders get set and press high.
