Screen 1

SET Up: Area size dependant on intensity of session. Play 3v3, 4 goals & balls placed on cones around edge of area. Play SSG where possession team look to score in opponents' goal. When goal scored or out of play the in-possession team collect a ball from any of the cones that they decide. Play until all balls have been used.

Key Points:

Defenders to get into a good defensive shape quickly to protect the goals and stop attackers playing forward.
Are you able to press or drop into block.
Communication and moving together as a unit to put pressure on the ball, be patient, force play where you want to go.
Win the ball transition to attack and score.
