Screen 1 (10 mins)

Set up: Area Size 30Wx30L split into 3 10X10 squares (can adjust based on numbers)

- 12 players 

- 12 footballs (minimum) 


Technical Practice: 3V3+2 Rondo DIRECTIONAL 

 

Attacking team: plays 3 passes before looking to break defensive line. 

2 points for a split pass 1 point for regular pass, 

other team MUST control ball to gain point(s) even if ball is in the air. 

Nobody is allowed out of their zone (Socially distant protocols)


Key messages: 

ATTACKING TEAM: Movement to find gaps, move ball to move opposition, choose the right moment to play. What pictures are we seeing? 

Coaching points in the flow: 

(When do we play that pass? Why do we want to focus on these elements?)

Answers: 1.) When there is a gap in the defensive line/block. 2.) We want to move the opposition out of their shae so we can penetrate early. 

DEFENDING TEAM: Pressure, balance, cover 

(where should we force the ball? when is there a trigger to press? Why do we do these things?) 


Answers: 1.) Outside/ Away from middle 2.) Soon as ball gets played sideways or back 3.) To force the opposition back towards their own zones (In game we force back so we can win the ball high up the field to quickly create scoring opportunities. 

Progressions:

 Add small goals and if defensive team wins ball, they shoot on goal for 5 points.

 Add GK in and when attacking team wins 2 points one person carries on their run and shoots first time.  

 Add 3rd player for defending team.

Screen 2

3+3+3 Directional rondo with goals. (Numbers can be manipulated)

Set up: 
Area 30W X 30L same as previous game. Add 4 small goals in the corners of each ATTACKING box. 

Objective: Attacking team plays minimum 2-3 passes before trying to exploit gaps in defensive line. If defender wins ball back from the green team, they have to look to find the green teams goals. The same applies if they win from white team, they have to play into either of the white team goals. 

Key messages: quick decision making, off the ball movement to create space, always having the latest soccer picture in mind, communication. 

Attacking questions: How can we create space to play through? Where should we be looking? When should we execute? 

Answers: 1.) Move ball quickly (Change tempo/rhythm of passing)/ interchange positions freely 2.) Forwards early 3.) as soon as we see a gap don't hesitate; clear and concise. 

Defending questions: What can we do to prevent them playing through? How can we close down without leaving box. Where can we force the attacking team to stop them playing through? 

Answers: 1.) Stay tight (pressure, cover, balance) 2.) Block off the next forward pass, force them side to side and shift as unit. 3.) force to the side and make sure to stay compact. 

Progressions: Add more players in Defensive

                      Move goals more centrally to encourage through balls in middle

                       Add keepers in small goals and they have to defend both goals    


Regressions: Add more players in attacking teams area

                       Defenders not allowed to press initial pass

                       Remove goals
