Football/Soccer Session (Academy Sessions): Exploiting overloads SSG

SSG (25mins)

Full width of the pitch by 40yrds length

11 players a 6v4 

Both teams are playing in their formations to replicate match realism. The aim of this is to use the overload to create and score goals. Every time the ball goes out of play the attacking team will start by doing this it replicates a counter attack during a game. If the red team win the ball they want to try and score into the mini goals that are placed out wide to replicate their wingers. When winning the ball if they can score in under 6 seconds they get 3 goals. If the defending team come to one side can you get it to the open space and go and score?

I will focus on how to utilise the extra players.
