OVERVIEW: Setup a pitch and split the pitch into thirds and organise two teams with goal and goalkeeper at either end. Split each of the end thirds into thirds and have a target player at either end. This game is played as a multi-directional game with both teams being able to score in either goal. The target players can play in any of their three boxes in their thirds and must be passed into before a team can score. Rotate the target players regularly.
COACHING POINTS: 1v1s, Combination Play, Switching Play, Crossing & Finishing.
PROGRESSSIONS: Target players can only contribute to goals in the outside boxes in each of their thirds.
REGRESSION: Make the game directional.

OVERVIEW: Setup a 20 x 20 area and set up two goals with a goal- keeper in each of the goals. Using cones, mark out four corners of the pitch. Organise two teams that will play against one another in the middle and another team that is located in each of the corners that will act as target players. In this game, both teams have to try and defend one goal and score within the oppositions goal. Attackers have to play the ball into one of the target players and then score directly from the target player. Players can score in either goal. Once a goal is scored, the team that concedes swaps roles with the target players.
COACHING POINTS: Eyes Up, Decision Making, Changes of Direction, 1st Time Finishing.
PROGRESSSIONS: Players must score with a 1st time finish after passing into the target players.
REGRESSION: Rather than playing winner stays on, play for a set amount of time or number of goals.

OVERVIEW: Setup a pitch with two goals and two teams and split the pitch into two halves. Organise attackers in the centre circle/area with a ball each with each player being given a number as well as players in each of the four corners of the pitch and a goalkeeper in each goal. When the coach calls a number, that player from the centre circle/area has to play into one of the players into the corners and combine with them before scoring. After their turn, players return with their ball into the centre circle/area. Regularly rotate attackers and target players.
COACHING POINTS: Movement, Finishing, Weight of Pass, Speed.
PROGRESSSIONS: Add a defender in front of each of the goals.
REGRESSION: Remove goalkeepers from the goals.
