Great site. An absolute must for coaches who are willing to change...
Ignatius

DESCRIPTION

Work on the rotation. This is the standard pattern - Left-Right (L-R) rotation, and will be made reference to in the next few drills. Players make the leads in an anti-clockwise direction.

Game Rules

  • 3 on 3 attacking in half the pitch
  • 2 defenders used as feeders.
  • forwards roll the simple rotation pattern.
  • Forwards can use the feeders to keep possession.

  • When the defence win back the ball they play out a 3 v 2 against the feeders.

    • COACHING POINTS

  • Dynamic movements to get clear of the defender as the pass is made.

  • Feeders to imagine that they are playing against forwards - i.e. movement at pace.
  • Pass the ball down the line, and diagonally infield, and between defenders.
