Passing pattern (20 mins)

Arrival activity: Passing pattern to play short and long, 5 players per pattern with a high tempo. Pass to a blue cone is a bounce followed by a long to other orange cone. Blue cone player moves to next cone when they do 1st pass, orange cone player goes after their 2nd pass.

Key points: Movement to receive - is it to late/early? body position - Ball protection/ability to play a good pass. Use of both feet.

Progression - 2 balls in rotation

Conditioned game (30 mins)

SET UP: Pitch split into 3rds, outer 3rds have an attacking 2v1, middle 3rd is a 1v1. Can players use middle player to create angles to play forward. Defenders then shuffle into next 3rds.

KEY POINTS: Timing of pass, movement to receive, awareness of defenders position. Do I need to use a touch to control? What might affect this - team mates positions?

POTENTIAL PROGRESSIONS: Add 2 players in middle zone, one to mark, one to screen, defender always in both outer thirds to ensure good movement/decision making on pass.
