Organization:
Set up cones for the two attackers (Players 2 and 3) and the defender (Player 1) in the center of the field. Place on large goal on the end line.
Description:
The defender (Player 1), starts play with a pass out to either of the attackers (Players 2 and 3). After an attacker receives, he passes to the other attacker and runs an overlap around him. Play continues from there, with Player 1 defending and the two attackers trying to get to goal and beat the goalkeeper. Upon completion, the last attacker to touch the ball goes off and the other two players go back to the attacking positions. A new player comes on from the sidelines (with a ball) as the defender.
Focus Points:
-
Run the overlap quickly, before the defender closes it down
-
Fake the overlap and dribble past the defender
-
Deal with the goalkeeper
