⚽️ Improve Finishing - Function | 09-P9

This functional practice sharpens players' finishing skills from various attacking scenarios. It comprises three tactical solutions: 1. Creating space for the attacking midfielder to exploit and score. 2. Winger delivering crosses from out wide. 3. Midfielders combining for shots from outside the box. If defenders win the ball or attackers miss, the three defenders initiate a counterattack and aim to score past the goalkeeper. Let's incorporate additional tactical solutions to keep our players engaged and challenged, ensuring they navigate through diverse attacking scenarios seamlessly!🔥⚽️

🔥 Movement in Behind to Finish | 82-P1

This practice focuses on developing passing combinations to create goal scoring opportunities. Three players execute a set sequence, releasing the winger in behind for a 1 v 1 against the goalkeeper. As players get comfortable, a defender can be introduced, intensifying the challenge for the striker to receive and execute the pass in behind. Precise passes and well-timed movements to stay onside are crucial in mastering this drill.🔥⚽️

🎉 Direct Counter From Deep | 08-P11

Engage in this medium-sided game, occupying a full half of the pitch, that focuses on direct counters from deep. The attacking team is organised in a 431 formation and the defending team in a 242 setup. Upon the coach's signal, the attacking team aims to combine and progress the ball wide, scoring within 20 seconds, while leaving only two defenders in the defensive half. Meanwhile, the defending team adopts a low block, focusing on regaining possession and executing swift deep counters to score within 10 seconds. Players must communicate to defend as a unit, time their moments to intercept and display quality decision-making when counter attacking at speed! 🔥⚽️

🔥 Pass and Move to Receive | 85-P3

This simple technical practice focuses on developing passing and movement to receive. Two players start centrally with the rest starting on the outline of the area. Players will combine in the set combination, focusing on one touch passing and timing their movements to receive. Once players are comfortable, we can introduce an extra 1-2 combination to the sequence to challenge players concentration and passing ability. A great technical practice that can be used as a warm up for your session! 🙌⚽️

🔥 Direct Counter From Deep (Low Block) | 08-P14

This 11 v 11 game takes place on a full-sized pitch and focuses on mastering the low block and executing direct counters from deep. The defending team adopts a 442 low block, while the attacking team lines up in a 433 formation. The attackers will start by building up play swiftly in Phase 1 against only two defending strikers. If defenders win the ball in Phase 2, it sparks a 6 v 7 counterattack. Should defenders regain possession deep in their own half, they seek the two strikers as outlets for a rapid counterattack. Midfielders and wingers provide vital support, bolstering the attack with numerical advantage. 

🎉 Passing Zones Race | Warm Up (WU-35)

Players love a bit of competition! In this engaging team race, players focus on passing and speed. Divided into 3 teams of 4, each player must pass once before the team can advance to the next zone. In the final zone, the last player must finish in the mini goal. The team to finish first wins! We can add more of a challenge by altering the order of the zones when progressing, ensuring players need to maintain their concentration throughout. Lot's of variations in this one to keep your players engaged! 🙌

🔥 Improving Final Third Combinations - 11 v 11 | 07-P14

This 11 v 11 practice unfolds on a full-sized pitch, developing build up and final third combinations. The attacking team, in a 443 formation, faces off against a defending team in a 352 setup. In the initial phase, a 6 v 4 situation challenges the possession team to create space and deliver a penetrating pass to their CDM (Blue 6). Once penetrated, the CDM advances to a 5 v 3 zone, aiming to combine and release wingers in the "No Pressure Zones" for penetrating runs and crosses. Inside the box, a 4 v 3 scenario unfolds, with attackers focused on finishing. If defenders gain possession in Phase 1, they counter in a 4 v 6 setup. In Phase 2, a 5 v 7 counter ensues, and in Phase 3, a full-field counterattack takes place.
