Keeping the same 15x15 Zones, but now set up a 6v6 with each zone having a 1v1 plus 2 neutrals who can go anywhere. Again the emphasis is on finding space, movement and moving the ball quickly. Each 1v1 must stay in their own zone. The neutrals play for whoever is in possession.
Can we play minimal touches moving to 2 touch for 6v6 zone players and 1 touch for neutrals.
Important to move to receive. It should be 2v1 at all times with the neutrals working around each zone.

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.
