Set Up:

Part A: Two teams play 3v2 keep away in the small zone (the defending team leaves a player outside of the zone). The three attackers possess the ball and score a point for making ten consecutive passes. The defenders look to win the ball.

Part B: When the defending team does win possession, their teammate on the outside (Player 3) runs around a mannequin and then down the flank to receive an outlet pass. The other team does not defend. After receiving, the flank player crosses to his two teammates (Players 1 and 2) running to goal. Goals are worth one point. After shooting, the three attackers return to the zone and become the attacking team. The other team sends a player out of the zone and defends. Games are played to 5 points.

Coaching Points:

1.   Pressure – Curve your run to the ball and force play in one direction.

2.   Anticipation – Read the play and shade towards that side of the field.

3.   Cover – When your man passes off, drop straight back into the center in behind your teammate. Do not chase the ball.

Progressions:  

1.  Expand to 6v4 keep away, with two players making runs down the flanks.

Players Required: 
7

Good transition to offense drill.
