Set Up:
There are 12-16 players set up in the attacking third, playing 4v3. The attackers start at the cones, and the defenders start in the penalty area. To begin play, the Feeder passes to any of the four attackers. The defenders can move with the Feeder’s first touch, and play continues from there to completion. If the defenders win the ball, they can score in the two small goals set up outside of the penalty area. On goals or balls put out of touch, the Feeder re-starts play with the next set of players.
Coaching Points:
1. Expand the field by getting width and depth. Create 1v1’s in wide positions.
2. Look to get to the end line for crosses and setbacks from the end line.
3. Take risks in and around the penalty area. Turn a half-chance into a goal.
Progressions:
1. A fourth defender comes onto the field after the third pass.
