🔥 1 v 1 Defensive Recovery Runs | 62-P3

This simple defensive practice focuses on developing defensive recovery runs and finishing in 1 v 1's. Players must develop their reactions to defend after their attack, ensuring no danger is conceded during these important transitions. We can shift the one mini goal to the other end to create diagonal recovery runs, just as we are likely to see in games. Let's get our players defending the goal with determination. 💪

⚽ Penetrating the Low Block | 80-P10

This phase of play practice takes place in a full half of a pitch and focuses on developing attackers ability to penetrate a low defensive block. Our attacking team are setup in a 433 up against a defensive block with two banks of 4 players. The objective is for the attacking team to move the ball around, stretching the defensive block and opening space to play penetrating passes between the lines or in behind to create goal scoring opportunities. If the defenders win possession, they must play out into either of the 4 mini goals. Breaking through a low block can pose challenges without a clear strategy, so let's ensure we're well-prepared for success in these situations!💪⚽️

🔥 Attacking Overloads in the Final Third | 86-P9

This functional practice focuses on enhancing possession skills and exploiting attacking advantages in the final third. It starts in the possession zone, where a 6 v 2 rondo intensifies the session. The aim is for the attacking team to complete 8 passes, transitioning to attacking teammates in open play (6 v 4). As the breakout pass occurs, the defensive fullback initiates their recovery run to stop the attack. If the defenders regain possession during the rondo or open play, they must combine or finish in either mini goal. 🙌⚽️

🔥 Supporting the Counter Attack | 49-P10

Experience a dynamic practice centred on winning possession and executing lightning-fast counter-attacks! Two teams start outside the rondo zone, while two defenders aim to win possession in the middle. The remaining teammates engage in shuttle runs, ready to support once possession is won. Players will pass out wide through the gates, setting up a wide player to deliver a cross for a 2 v 1 opportunity in the box. Working together as a pair to win possession, passing weight into space for the winger to receive in stride and speed from attacking players to support the attack are key coaching points in this one!🔥⚽️
