9v9 - Stop Play - Move off small goals - Players added back in
Blue Team: GK, and 1 CB
Red Team: Striker to be added as first line of defence.
Challenges - Reds to now be more of a defensive unit in a game scenario. Can they still now defend the final 3rd but higher up the pitch and get their rewards to go and play. Have the confidence to look to counter attack.
Conditions - Pitch is played in the final 3rd but restrict the angle on one end of the pitch to encourage the ball to go more direct in the wide areas.
Restarts - With goalkeeper for in possession team (i.e. if it goes out for a set piece, then the team in possession starts from the goalkeeper).
Targets: Both teams to score but the Reds to minimise the Yellows chances and can they counter at pace.
Coaching Points
Out of possession - Protect the middle / force wide / stop-defend the cross / body on the line
On the ball: Pressure / Around the Ball: stop passing lanes, force one way / Away from the ball: narrow and compact, leave furthest player, force backwards, 9 players behind the ball.
Problem: What do the reds want from their number 9? Stay high, or defend deep. Does the midfield want to press out wide areas.
1) Reset on pitch geography / body positions.
2) Concurrent feedback to individuals

Organisation
Participants: Specific = 15 / SSG = 18
In the specific practice, set up 8v7 with the out of possession team having a goalkeeper.
In the SSG, there will be a 9v9.
Area Size
The area is half-pitch, tapered from 10 yards to the edge of the centre circle and half-way line.Cones will be set up alongside the width of the tapered pitch, to support starting positions for each team. Utilise pitch geography, (D of 18 for defensive line, Width of 18yrd for defensive unit.)
Mini-goals will be set for out of possession team to attack and score. Normal goals setup ready to go for SSG.
Coached Red Team: Out of possession team (1-4-5-1, playing as a 1-4-3-0 without wingers and striker for specific practice / with a striker for SSG)
Managed Blue Team: In possession team (1-4-4-2, playing as a 0-1-4-2, with only 1 CB from the back 4 / with 1 CB and a GK joining for the SSG).
Create width, try and force them to be wide to create gaps to break lines. 10 to start as a centre forward, (Width and depth / combination play / final pass / quality of finish).
Framing
RED TEAM: Q&A about starting position: Start narrow, within the 18yd box. The deeper centre midfielders screen the central defenders.
Highest CM block direct route to goal. Each line of defence will line up alongside the cone. Last line of defence have a high line - First Pass to start walk through
Restarts
Each phase of play will begin with the Blue 8 turning to get a ball from the goal, and the red 10 beginning to force the direction one way with a press on either CM. Players must be in shape before restart.
Timings
Specific Practice: 1 x 3 min block, 1 x 5 min block, with Intervention.
SSG: 3 x 4 min block, with Concurrent Feedback.
Objectives
Welsh Way Principles - Understand when and how to minimise space, deal with crosses / shots & protect space centrally in the defensive third.
Key Session Coaching Points:
Protect the Middle, Force Wide, Minimise Box Entries, Stop Crosses, Defend the Box
