Senior: Making the Most of the Overload

Rating: from 4 members ratings

As the season progresses your players should be improving at winning overload situations. Most overloads start with a forward picking up the ball in space and at speed, often requiring the player to control on the reverse.

To encourage your players to put the ball into space and to work on their overload performance this session aims to encourage positive, attacking play in your players!

To get things started we focus on receiving the ball on the reverse in a series of small group exercises where players must make space for the pass in a 2v1. Once your players have had the chance to practice the skill in isolation we then build back towards a game situation, getting players to pass towards the goal before finishing with one of our favourite conditioned games - specially designed to promote attacking play and switching the point of attack!
