Struggling to get all your players involved? Well struggle no more, as this session is designed to get your whole team motivated and involved with four defending and possession games!
To make sure your team are playing possession football with a purpose, this session practices defending against an attacking overload.
Attacking overloads happen when your side are playing a formation with few defenders (e.g. 3-4-3), if you're caught on the counter attack or if you've lost a player through injury/booking.
Teach your players how to defend as a team, delay the attack and support one another with this week's defending games session.

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
