DESCRIPTION

Selecteer 10 spelers: 1 keeper, 3 verdedigers en 2 aanvallers dicht bij de goal, 2 verdedigers en 2 aanvallers halverwege de middellijn. Plaats twee kleine doelen in de hoeken rond de middellijn voor de verdediging om in te scoren.

Het doel van deze oefening is dat de twee aanvallers bij de middellijn de bal doorspelen naar de twee voorste aanvallers. De verdedigers bij de middellijn proberen de bal te onderscheppen. Wanneer de bal bij de voorste aanvallers is, mogen de twee verdedigers hun teamgenoten voor de goal helpen te verdedigen. Zij zijn dan de middenvelders voor het wegwerken van de bal in ??n van de kleine goals.

COACHING POINTS

Midfield players must track forward runners.

If playing a flat back three, make sure they push up together.

Keep play in front of you in defense--force it across the goal and make it predictable.

As a back three, can we apply pressure, support and balance.
