Football/Soccer Session (Academy Sessions): Dribbling to Finish

Dribble to Finish (25 mins)

Session - Dribbling to Finish 56 x 44 yards.

Two teams of 3 players, 1 team of 4 Defenders and 2 Gks

Each player on the dribbling teams has their own ball, they are each given a number 1-3.

The players dribble around and look to keep their ball away from the Defenders.

The defenders look to try and steal the ball and then can go to either goal and try and score. The defenders chase for a minute and then swap with the defenders on the outside. The games last for four minutes.

When the Coach calls a number, that number player has to break into the Finishing Zone and try to score. The first player to score wins a point for their team. Once they've shot they collect another ball and continue to dribble.
