Left defender build up:

The LD takes a hit in from the side line. Their compulsory pass is to the the SW. As soon as the ball is played the 3 players with the ball have to get the ball out of the 23m area. (Tip is that one ot the 3 players with the ball always takes a position between the two defenders).

Overload situations

Changing the Point of Attack:

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2.

At the same time, player 3 makes a run infield to create space for player 2 to pass the ball ahead of player 4, who runs on to the ball.

This player then runs with the ball and passes the ball to player 3, now in the circle.

The next group start from player 3, pass to 2 and player 1 makes the space for the ball to be passed to player 5 in the space.

Player 2 is the only player staying in position, the rest can constantly swap places.

Shooting & Goalscoring

1 v 1 - Channelling:

Split your group into two teams - defenders and attackers.

Players with the ball have to run around the cone and try and score. Players without ball also have to run around the cone, and then try and stop the other player scoring.

Defending Skills

Two attackers run together at the same time with a ball each. Attackers can dribble through any of the three goals. The defender has to choose which player to tackle.
