Area: 45y x 20y 

In the center grid, midfielders play 3v3. Ball must go via midfielders to center forward in front of goal. A midfielder can go into the attacking third to make it a 2v1 situation.

Coaching Points:

Attacking Team:

Play in diamond shape and make the field as large as possible.

Recognize when to break the vertical line; busy on one side, move the ball to the other side.

Create flow. Value the ball.

 

Defending Team:

Make the field small by moving together towards the ball.

Stay compact. Work hard. Pressure the ball at the right moment and win it back.
