Organization:
Field 40 x 20 yards. Both teams play in a 2-1-1 formation but have a neutral player in the build up between the two small goals. The build up starts every time with the neutral players.
Progression: Play 5+1 v 5+1. Play in a 2-1-2 shape.
Coaching Points:
Defenders
-
Forward must put pressure on the ball when the opponent starts the build up.
-
Defenders try to step in front of the attackers when receiving the long pass and win the ball.
Attackers
-
Make the field as wide and long as possible, forward must stay high and move to left/right.
-
Value the ball and play the ball forward at the right moment.
-
After the deep pass all players must join the attack
