Skill: Positional Balance Game

SETUP

- identical to the technique session except only one ball is in play at a time

FUNCTION

- One team is in possession in a single box at a time

- The outside players on the adjacent lines as well as the team players in adjacent squares may come act as bumpers but not enter the square

- The opposite team player in the square may defend along with one player from an adjacent square

- Essentially, this is a 5v2 situation

- Once 7 passes have been completed, possession can be relocated to another grid

- First team to complete 7 passes in all 4 grids wins

COACHING POINTS

- Staging...where is the next pass/open grid?

- Playing away from pressure...can we play into the grid that is currently lacking a defender?

- Speed of play

SSG

SETUP

- 70x40 (roughly)

- 7v7 plus GKs

FUNCTION

- Start initially with a center back and center mid restricted to either side of the central line and wide players pinned to the channel

- Forwards are the players who can travel across lines

- Finish with the lines strictly for reference

- FAR WIDE PLAYER CAN JOIN ON THE SERVICE

- Defensively unrestricted

COACHING POINTS

- You can show to support without unbalancing the rest of the pitch

- If one player transitions across a line, how can we create balance? Move out, move up, etc
