The aim of this session is to try and create overloads in the attacking third to create goal scoring opportunities - helping your improve combinations in wide areas.
What's in the Session?
To lay down the fundamentals and get your players using correct techniques this session starts with short sharp passing with good body shape to be able to play into the next line.
The session then progresses to a 4v2 in a possession square. The attacking 3 are looking to score past the 2 defenders - they can start unopposed if needed.
Use this attacking session to get your team working together to capitalise on any counter attacking opportunities and to improve decision making in importance positions on the pitch.

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.
