Organisation:
30m x 30m square split into 2 equal sections
Any number of players but must be two defenders in each of the two sections. Above I have shown 4 v 1 or 2 (x2) = 12 players
Objectives:
This is a moving 'rondo', where the teams play 4 v 1 possession games. After they have made three passes, they all continue to pass and retain possession from the defenders but move into one of the two other boxes that are free.
The defenders carry bibs to identify themselves and rotate roles every 2 minutes.
This drill requires communication and teamwork, along with demonstration of good technique of passing and control.
Tactical - working as a team; communication
Technical - Passing; control
Social - fun, teamwork
Psychological - decision making processes

Roughly a fifth of Premier League goals come from set pieces, and the gap between teams who plan their routines and teams who do not has never been wider. Here is how the modern set-piece specialists design attacking corners, free kicks, and throw-ins - and how you can apply their ideas at any level.
The next frontier in football coaching is not physical, it is mental. Cognitive load training - the deliberate use of perception, decision-making and dual-task demands inside football drills - is reshaping how the best academies develop players. Here is what it means and how to use it.
If the last decade taught us about pressing, this one is teaching us about what stands behind it. Rest defence is the shape your team holds while attacking, and it is the difference between dominating a game and getting picked off on the counter.
