Setup: Star passing pattern setup between arcs. 4 defenders setup on 4 cones on the 18 yd line.

Game: As the ball moves in pattern, the defenders in the back move as unit to pressure the ball. Every time it is played forward, someone steps up as if to intercept and not let defender turn. Played to the side, the defenders move in diagonal with outside player pressuring the ball. When it moves back, they all step forward. Simulate game movement. Rotate players to defensive spots.

Setup: Two 15x15 yd grids set up even with the edges of the 18. Pole placed in the middle of each grid (game can be played without pole). Two groups of 4 v 2 in each grid. Two waiting players by wide cones.

Game: Each grid plays a 4v2 rondo, with blue players staying on their outside lines (can move side to side. Blue players are trying to hit the pole in the center. Red players are trying to win the ball from their grid and counter to goal.

When either pair of red defenders win a ball, they immediately pass wide to either B or C, and they release into box with both B and C to go to goal. Blue players A and D release immediately back into space to defend against the counter (creating a 4v2 to goal.) A and D act as center defenders and try to win the ball and push back out into squares. Once a goal is scored or blue wins the ball back, the two grids continue the 4v2 games. Try to rotate the A and D positions on each restart.

Scoring: 1 pt for red goal. 1 pt for blue hitting pole.

Duration: 5 min games and switch roles

Coaching Points:

- Immediate chase once ball is lost.

- Cover the passing lanes instead of just chasing the ball.

- Quick feet, quick movement, quick reaction time
