Organization:

Two long narrow fields with larger goals and GK in one goal. Defending team scores on a large empty goal. This can also be played with 4 counter goals in the corners or as line soccer. One attacker starts high with a defender in his/her back. The game starts with a long pass from Attacker 1 to Attacker 2. Attackers try to score on the goal with GK, the defender can score on the empty goal. Rotate players through.

Variations:

Add an attacker and defender to make it 3 v 2. The second defender starts with the two attackers and must let the first pass go.

Focus Points:

  • Movement of deep striker to get open.

  • Strong long pass, at the right moment, with the inside of the foot or laces to the deep striker.

  • Passer makes a run to the correct position to support the deep striker. Make the field wide and create a 2 v 1 situation.

  • Defender: Try to score quickly after winning the ball. In the beginning of the activity, the defender can not try to win the ball until the attacker receives the ball.

Players Required: 
8-10
