Organization:

Field 40 x 20 yards. Both teams play in a 2-1-1 formation but have a neutral player in the build up between the two small goals. The build up starts every time with the neutral players.

Progression: Play 5+1 v 5+1. Play in a 2-1-2 shape.

Coaching Points:

Defenders

• Forward must put pressure on the ball when the opponent starts the build up.

• Defenders try to step in front of the attackers when receiving the long pass and win the ball. 

Attackers

• Make the field as wide and long as possible, forward must stay high and move to left/right.

• Value the ball and play the ball forward at the right moment.

• After the deep pass all players must join the attack
