Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Small Sided: 3v2, 3v3, 4v3

Main Theme (30 mins)

Organization:

1. 30x20 field

2. Goals (2)

3. Separate players into two teams

4. Multiple Balls

Instructions:

1. Each team begins with a goal keeper in goal.

2. Team 1 begins the round by passing the ball into Team 2. Three players from Team 2 step onto the field creating a 3v2. If Team 2 scores a goal they earn 1 point. If the players from Team 1 win the ball and score a goal, the team earns one point. If the ball goes out of play, no point is scored.

3. As soon as the ball is shot or goes out of play, a player from Team 1 steps onto the field with a ball creating a 3v3. Which ever team scores, earns a point for their team.

4. As soon as the ball is shot or goes out of play, a player from Team 2 steps onto the field with a ball creating a 4v3. Which ever team scores, earns a point for their team. If the ball is played out of bounds the round is over.

4. Each team has one minute to score a goal or no point is earned. Each rotation of players is a round. At the end of the round the goal keeper is switched and the players switch positions as well.

5. Players will play for 10m, get a drink, switch sides and play for another 10m.

Coaching Points:

1. Counter quickly on transition before opposition can organize

2. If counter is not optional maintain possession

3. Maintain width and depth when attacking

4. 2nd attacker to offer support

5. 3rd & 4th attacker to play away from the ball or make attacking run in behind

6. Combine tactics from 1v1, 2v1, 2v2 and 3v2

7. Play at speed
