Skill Game (30 mins)

Organization:

- Full pitch 60m x 45m

-Alternatively play can start from a throw-in.

Rules:

-1v1 can only take place in the middle or front 3rd.

-Can we play the #9 as quick as possible?

Coaching Cues:

-Playing out from the back, can we use the passing pattern from the start of the session.

-That was a good contest 1v1, but can we look to release the ball after beating the defender?

-Change of speed and change of direction

-Keeping the ball out of tackling range of the opponent i.e. 1 big step from their feet (u/10 to u/14)

-Take the opponent one way to create space and suddenly accelerate back into the space you created

-Keep your body between the ball and player (carry the ball on the foot furthest from the opponent)

-There are no offsides in small sided games.
