1v1 Dribbling (25 mins)

Practice Set up.

Oranges are defenders. Blues attackers.

Defending- Defend for 2 minutes sets. 4 rounds.

Ball transfered from waiting orange to blue. Current orange defender DOES NOT PASS.

When ball leaves players foot the defender can travel to press.

Blue looks to run the ball and finish into the mini goal (2pts).

If the orange wins it they try and run the ball back over the flat markers within 5 seconds (3 points).

Once the play finishes (goal, out of play, transition) players get off the pitch ASAP.

Gauntlet Practice (20 mins)

Practice for a minimum of 6 players - I would reduce the number of zones with fewer players.

Dribbling players (purple) get 20 footballs. They can choose how many they send out at any point (obviously the most they can go at any time is 6).

Each player that gets into the red zone they get 1 point.

Each player that gets into the green zone they get 3 points.

Each player that gets into the blue zone they get 5 points.

If they get out of the gauntlet they get 10 points.

If the blues win the ball and hit the goal the points then don't count - if the purples lose it they can try and win it back or force it out of play.

Defending Players are locked in to their zones but can change their formations after each go - they must have at least one player in each zone.
