Having the ability to identify when the opposition is out of shape or when certain players are out of position should influence how you attack them. The best teams in the world are able to exploit the opposition when players are caught out of position or make mistakes in certain areas of the pitch.
What's in the session?
This session is focused on the attacking principles required when opponents are either in or out of balance.
Players will be able to recognise when opponents are in and out of shape, and therefore attack with purpose to create goal scoring opportunities.
This session will look at speed and tempo of play, passing forward quickly, timing/quality of movement, support play and exploiting space.
The session is aimed at players U14+.

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
