Excellent site with easy to navigate pages.

DESCRIPTION

Possession game using a ball on a cone (a trophy) as a target for a penetrating pass.

A square appropriate for age/ability of the children. 

2 defenders in the centre (blue). 

A cone with a ball on it inside a no-go zone marked out by the orange cones. Only the football can go in there.

Reds pass around the square not allowing the blues to win the ball. When the opportunity arises, the reds should try and split the blues with a penetrating pass through the centre and knock the ball off the cone. 

COACHING POINTS

  • Pass must be accurate, correctly weighted and time.
  • Body shape to receive should be open so you can scan the area. 
  • First touch should be in to space.
  • Communication.
  • Movement off the ball to get correct distance and angles of support. 

 

  • Defenders should work as a pair.
  • One pressures to force the ball across to where his partner his. 
  • Nearest player applies pressure on the ball as soon as the ball is travelling. 
  • Look over shoulder to see where they are in relation to the trophy.
