Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Possession II (Start Time: 2015-09-17 23:35:00)

2v1 Possession (25 mins)

2v1 Possession

Start with ball in Grid 1 with 2 Blue players vs 1 Yellow player

2 Blue players try and connect 3 passes inside Grid 1 while Yellow defends and then after connecting 3 passes either Blue can pass ball into the next Blue teammate waiting in Grid 2

The non-passing Blue player from Grid 1 enters Grid 2 to support Blue teammate to string together 3 more passes while Yellow transitions from Grid 1 to Grid 2 to defend again.

Same sequence again, 2 Blue players connect 3 passes inside Grid 2 while Yellow defends and then either Blue can pass ball into next Blue teammate waiting in Grid 3.

Once play has reached Grid 3 then the game continues and reverses back to Grid 2.

NOTE: Yellow defends and transitions into each Grid trying to win ball. If Yellow wins ball, they pass it over to their teammates in any of the Grids of 4, 5, or 6. Yellow then quickly organizes and starts to string together their 3 passes in a Grid while the Blue player on that side defends.

One and two touch play is key. Off ball movement is critical. Look for layoffs and give and go. Angle play is a big part of the game. Look for quick moevement off of ball, firm pace on passes, leading passes, locking ankle on passes, touches away from defender and pressure, quality first touch.

5v5+1 to Two Wide Goals with End Line Players (25 mins)

5v5+1 to two wide goals with end line players

Possession driven with swtiching point of attack

End line players can be used as target players and are limited to 1 touch back into play

1 point for a direct goal by field player but 2 points for a ball played to end line player who 1 touches it back into play for a teammate to score.

Off ball movement is key, changing point of attack, playing the ball the way your facing, one and two touch play can be very effective, open hips and don't turn into pressure.
