YOUNGER GROUPS- Ball Manipulation/Idividual Possession
Slipt area into 3 zones, palyers have to cross all 3 zones to score
Invasion Game
Place a tagger in each of the 3 zones with 2 taggers to cover middle zone. Score by travelling across all 3 zones safely. If a tagger catches you, hold a balance waiting for someone to free you to return back into the game
Individual Possession Practice
Same as above but use footballs, can you dribble through all 3 zones to score. Defenders can tag whilst dribbling with a ball OR play without a ball trying to steal a ball, if you get caught hold ball in your hands for someone to dribble through your legs to return back into the game

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.
