Organization
Make an area of 40x50 meters in the central area of the pitch with the spac markers, 6 forwards play against 5 defenders, the 5 forwards combine themselves and try to score.
Description
- 2 teams try to score in different ways. Forwards must score in the goal. Defenders must score in the small goals
- A forward starts playing with their teammates inside the playing area and gets in the rectangle. Defenders try to recover the possession and score a goal in the two small goals from the halfway line
- A1 passes the ball to one of the attacking players and then starts playing with them
- A2 tries to combine with their attacking teammates in order to create spaces and goal opportunities
- A2 combines with A3 through a wall pass in order to get the chance to shoot at goal
Variations
- Increase the number of defensive players up to 6
Coaching Points
- The forward has to receive the ball placing himself in such a way that their body is facing the goal
- Forwards should move without ball in order for them to create some space
- Overlapping runs
- Work on the wall pass
