Set Up:
Twelve players are set up on a large field split into three zones, playing 5v5 in the central zone. The Feeder begins play with a pass into the attacking team. To score, the attackers must complete a thru pass combination, sending one player into the attacking zone. Once the thru pass is made, the attacker goes to goal alone. On goals or balls put out of play, the Feeder re-starts play in the central zone.
Coaching Points:
1. Create space with overlaps and takeovers.
2. Look for an attacker making a horizontal run across the field, in behind a defender.
3. Flank attackers should drift out wide in order to get out of the defender’s field of vision.
Progressions:
1. Allow a defender to follow the pass across.
