Organization:

Set up a field of 20Y x 15Y and divide the team in three groups.  Two groups (attackers) stand next to one goal, one group (defenders) stand next to the other goal.  The first defender dribbles the ball onto the field, makes a 1v1 move and passes the ball to one of the two attackers.  The 2v1 starts. 

The turn ends when a goal is scored, or the ball goes over the end line.

Continue the game when the goalkeeper makes a save.

When the ball goes over the sideline, the attackers must pass the ball back in, the defenders can also dribble the ball back in.

Players rotate positions after each turn.   Rotate goalkeepers every couple minutes.  

 

Focus Points:

• Dribbling technique.

• 1v1 moves.

• Passing technique. 

• Shooting technique

 

Attacking

Keep the field wide. 

Go for 1v1 move or pass?

Creative runs, overlaps, give and go.

Finishing. 

Value the ball.

 

 

Defending

Run to the attacker with the ball, but don't be too wild. Don't get beat with a pass or 1v1 move. 

Pressure the ball.

Can you turn the 2v1 into a 1v1 by cutting off the passing lane between the two attackers and forcing the attacker with the ball to the sideline? Make the angel smaller and smaller to help the goalkeeper.

Win the ball back at the right moment.

Try to create a scoring chance as quickly as possible.
