🎉 Technical Passing & Movement | 84-P3

It's time to get our players passing and moving using this simple technical practice. The objective is for players to pass to teammates and then run to the free cone in the area. We have added a simple progression to increase the number of passes in this practice. Players must focus on their passing weight and accuracy and must use quick scans to check where the free cone is at all times. 🙌⚽️

⚽️ Defending Against Overloads | 60-P5

Dive into an intense practice developing defensive organisation against attacking overloads. A pass into the striker triggers the action, with a 3 v 2 attacking overload taking place. The objective is for the defenders to work as a unit to win possession and play out into the mini goal, simulating playing out to the CDM. Attackers must use their numerical advantage to penetrate the defensive unit, looking to finish in either of the two mini goals. We have added two progressions to increase the challenge for players and change the dynamic of their attacking and defensive play. 💪⚽️

🔥Defend the Zones | 60-P2

Let's challenge and refine our players' defensive capabilities and decision-making in possession with this targeted practice. In this 3 v 3 + 2 setup, the team in possession must combine with floaters to receive the ball in either the wide zones ( 1 Goal ) or the end zone ( 3 goals ). If the defenders win the ball, they become the possession team. Defenders need to be sharp, potentially having to sacrifice one goal to stop the opponent from getting 3! After the set period, the team with the most goals wins. 💪⚽️

🎉 Transitional Rondo | 88-P5

This transitional rondo focuses on pressing to regain, maintaining possession and exploiting numerical overloads. We have three zones, each with different overload scenarios, with the primary goal for the team in possession to break lines and advance to the next zone. The central players are tasked with seamless combination play, aiming to advance the ball and ultimately connect with the designated floater in the third zone, earning them a goal. Let's refine our players pressing, possession, and tactical decision-making skills, fostering a well-rounded and adept team ready for the challenges on the field! 🔥⚽️

🔥 The Activation Square | Warm Up ( WU-32 )

We kickoff this week with a warm-up designed to prime players for the upcoming session, focusing on elevating their dribbling and passing skills. Players will dribble forward to the central square, leave the ball, run anticlockwise to collect another ball and pass it back to the next player in line. To elevate this warm-up, incorporate 1-2 combinations with middle players, increasing the amount of passes played, and to ensure our players remain alert. 🙌⚽️

⚽️ WM/FB Combinations & Recovery | 62-P4

It's time to get our wide players combining and performing recovery runs in this high intensity practice. We have two groups working at the same time, with the player finishing in the 1st area transitioning quickly to defend vs the attacker in the 2nd area in a 1 v 1 scenario. Speed of recovery runs, finishing accuracy and passing weight are key coaching points in this one. 🔥⚽️

⚽️ Developing the Midfield 3 | 77-P5

Here we have a 3 v 3 + 3 Rondo based practice that is focused on developing central midfielders ability to maintain possession when under pressure. The objective is for the three central players to combine with their three outside team-mates and make 10 passes earning the team a goal. If the defenders win possession, the roles are reversed with the the possession team now becoming the defenders. Short sharp combination play, positional awareness and communication are key to excelling in this practice! 💪⚽️
