Organization:
Area: 45y x 35y
Game of 5v5 (4 + GK). The goalkeeper participates in the buildup. See position in diagram. When the ball goes over the sideline, the game starts again with the goalkeeper.
Variation: Instead of a goalkeeper, play with two central defenders. That team defends a smaller goal.
Game: Keep track of the score.
Focus Points:
-
Making the field as large as possible when in ball possession. Forward deep, wingers wide, and two central defenders apart.
-
Create passing lanes.
-
Face forward when receiving the ball.
-
Hard passing to the correct foot or into space.
-
After deep pass one central defender joins in if possible.
-
Center forward movement (not too early) to get open.
