Attacking Freekicks (10 mins)

Set up:

Free Kicks (Always set up with two on the ball and the others on far side of goal)

Shout 1 for direct ball into box or shot on goal. Taker raises arm before run to show players whos taking it and for others to time runs into box.

Shot 2 for short pass to other freekick taker for a cross or a shot around the wall

We should keep a triangle 3 back behind the ball to defend the counter.

Freekicks outside of the above zones should be just placed on the fall and passes to nearest open player.

Attacking Corners (10 mins)

Set up:

Attacking Corner Kicks

Two players on the ball to start. If the other team does not send anyone we always do option 2. if they send one we still do option 2 if they send 2 we do option 1.

Option: 1 direct ball into box. Other player makes run into box

Option 2: Short pass with A passing to B and then overlapping B. B can then dribble, cross or pass to A depending on what he see.

Two players stay on edge of 18 to deal with clearances to put the ball back in or shoot and to deal with defending the oppositinos counter attack. Two other players stay behind them.
