4 vs. 4 to Six Goals

Setup

• Make multiple fields as necessary. Players play 4v4.
• Teams attack the three goals on one side of the field.
• Outside goals are worth 3pts, inside goal worth 1.
• Restart with throw-ins and goalkicks. No corners.
• Both teams play in a 3-1 formation. (#2, #3, #4, #9)
• Progression: Eventually change the middle goal to being worth 3pts, and outside goal worth 1pt to make more game realistic.

Coaching Points

• Encourage the outside backs (#2 and #3) to get forward to support the attack by providing width.
• Mobility of attacking team. Once they’re in a good shape, they need to continue moving into new space to unbalance defenders.
