2v2 + 2, Small Goals

Field of 20Y x 15Y with small counter goals in each corner.

The game is 2v2 with a neutral wall player between both goals. This makes it 4v2 when a team is in ball possession. Switch roles every 2 to 3 minutes.

When the ball goes over the sideline, the ball must be passed back onto the field. When the ball goes over the endline, the neutral player passes the ball back onto the field. 

Game: Keep track of score. As an extra bonus, a goal scored directly from a pass from a neutral player counts double. 

 

 

FOCUS POINTS:

Attackers:

• When in ball possession, make the field as large as possible.
• Use the wall players to create a 4v2 situation.
• Wall players should move left/right to create passing lanes.
• Passing; correct speed on the ball and to the correct foot. 
• Receive the ball with the correct foot and into space with frist touch. 
• Keep ball possession.

 

Defenders:

• Pressure the ball, work together, work hard.
• Try to win the ball back at the right moment. When the opponent has a bad touch, the ball is played through the air or a player stands in the corner.
• Protect the goal, block shots.  

 

Transition from Defending to Attacking

• Explode. Find an open player as quickly as possible, preferable forward. 
• Try to create a scoring chance as quickly as possible. 10-Second Rule.

 

Transition from Attacking to Defending

• Quick Reaction.
• Run to the attacker with the ball and pressure the ball.
• Try to win the ball back within 5 seconds. 
• Don't stop defending.
