Football/Soccer Session (Academy Sessions): Transition Play

Transition Play (60 mins)

Area - 35x45 Yards

Duration : 15-3-15-3-15

SSG - 8Vs8

Attacking team formation :- 1-2-1-2-1-1

Defending team formation :- 1-3-2-1

8v8 match starts if a team scores goal then they must have to back to their position and the match will starts from the goal scored team.

Coaching points : When in position players should always try to play through, around or over the press. To prevent the opposition from playing through them easily, the defending team should focus on compactness and covering, and supporting one another when pressing, as these are the key components of a good transition into attack. The team in possession should try to stretch the opposition so that space and gaps appear to play into.
