🎉 Developing the Switch | 50-P7

In this practice, we prioritise the crucial skill of switching play to exploit space effectively. Players engage in short passing sequences before executing precise switches to our full backs in space out wide. Our full backs will receive on the run before switching play again to the opposite winger, getting them comfortable playing these passes for when the opportunities arise on game day. We have two progressions to this practice that focus on our wingers ability to receive and drive and 1 v 1 duels.🔥⚽️

We play a 4-3-3 and our opponent (must win for conference match) plays a 4-4-2 with a diamond in the back. I would love ideas, sessions to add to the training calender to help our team get ready! Should we switch formations? They are very fast in the MF.

🎉 Play Out from the Back | 28-P12

Let's take a look at a Technical Pattern of Play that can help improve our players ability when playing out from the back. Players will start on each of the cones, moving through the set pattern using one and two touch passes and following their passes to the next station. Once players are comfortable and are in a good flow, we can increase the challenge by adding 1-2 combinations throughout the sequence. Let's play out from the back with confidence! 💪⚽️

🔥 Quick Transfer Rondo | 28-P8

This Phase 1 practice is designed to enhance build-up play, movement, and forward passing skills. The goal is for the possession team to effectively link up with the central midfielders and transition possession to the other zone. If the defenders regain possession, they have the opportunity to either combine play or score against the goalkeeper. Timing movements to find space, spatial awareness to facilitate rotation, and the ability to create quality passing angles are crucial elements for success in this practice. 💪⚽️

🔥 Switch Play Possession Game | 83-P5

This dynamic practice is set in an hourglass-shaped area, and focuses on enhancing possession and switching play skills. The goal is for the possession team to complete five passes and connect with the floater before swiftly switching play to teammates in the opposite area. Meanwhile, three defending players aim to disrupt the possession team's efforts by intercepting passes. Should the possession team successfully make five passes in the second area, they have the opportunity to score in either mini goal. Conversely, if the defenders regain possession, they can also attempt to score in any mini goal. 🙌⚽️
