Set Up:
The players are set up on a full field, playing 11v8 with goalkeepers. During the game, the defenders play in a 4-3-1 and are not allowed to tackle the ball. Instead, they shadow the attackers and can only win the ball by intercepting passes or blocking shots. When a goal is scored or a ball is put out of play, it is re-started by the Feeder. Players switch to new teams after ten minutes.
Coaching Points:
1. Play one and two touch soccer, moving the ball faster than the defenders can recover.
2. Anticipate changes of possession and attack with superior numbers.
3. Maintain possession until a good opportunity to attack materializes. Don’t force it.
Progressions:
1. Play 7v7 plus three.
