Set Up:

Three teams of two players are 4v2 inside of the red zone, playing keep away. When the defenders win the ball, they attack 2v1 against the team that lost the ball, going towards either of the two goals that team is defending. The 2v1’s take place inside of the blue zones. Upon completion, the team that defended the 2v1 becomes the defending team when the 4v2 re-starts. A running score is kept during the game for all three teams and goals scored in the small goals are worth one point.

Coaching Points:

1.  Attacking – Attack at speed as soon as the ball is won. Take the dribble right at the defender in the 2v1.​

2.  The Overlap – Make the pass as soon as the runner reaches a square position. The pass should NOT take him out wider.

3.  Decision Making – If the defender reads the combo, fake the pass and then dribble by him.

Progressions:

1.  Limit the time and/or the number of passes made during the 2v1 attack.
