This drill encourages players to work together in a Defensive unit and is especially relevant for midfield players.
Set up 3 areas in a line: 5 x 5 yards, 20 x 5 yards and another 5 x 5 yards
Opposite this, within shooting distance (about 15 yards), set up 4 goal areas in a line, marked by cones. The 2 inside goals will be used for the first game and then just the 2 outside goals will be used for the second game.
Have 1 player restricted to each of the 5 x 5 areas, and 2 players in the 20 x 5 area. The goal of these players is to pass amongst themselves to score (firstly in the goals marked "1" and then in the goals marked "2").
Against them will be 4 defenders who will need to work together to shut down these shooting opportunities, starting midway between the boxes and the goals.
The coach plays the ball to the Attackers, and at this time the Defenders will approach the Attackers. They cannot travel into the boxes but will use angles to try to stop a quick pass and shoot option.
