After passing across, players must sprint to press, forcing the player to take a good touch to avoid interceptions. We can increase the size of the square and work in the opposite direction to add variation to this simple but effective warm up. 🙌⚽️

🎉 Beat the Chaos to Switch | 50-P2

This practice emphasises enhancing players' awareness, first touch, and passing accuracy for our younger age groups. The goal is for outside players to link up with central teammates, who receive the ball, turn, and pass to their outside teammate. Central players must navigate around others in the zone, timing passes to prevent collisions. Once players are comfortable, we can introduce a rotation progression to keep them on their toes and moving throughout the practice. 🙌⚽️

🔥 Break Lines to Exploit Overloads | 47-P9

This practice focuses on developing teams ability to progress possession between the lines and exploit attacking overloads. Initially, two defenders aim to progress play into the second zone while screened by the opposition striker. Once the pass is made, one defender advances to create a 3 v 3 situation in the second zone. Upon passing into the final zone, the three players from the second zone move forward to create a 6 v 4 attacking overload, with the aim to finish. If the defending team gains possession in any zone, they must transfer the ball to their striker to earn a goal. Let's get our team progressing play with confidence! 🔥⚽️
