Key Focus …
Passing; Leading; Vision; Communication
Description …
Attacker 1 passes to Attacker 2 who leads to pass, collects on
the move and arcs with the ball into the bottom corner and
into the circle. Attacker 2 and 3 then work together to score.
Two Defenders in the circle must not leave the circle and try
to stop Attackers from scoring. Goalkeeper and Defenders
must talk and work together. Attackers 2 and 3 may pull the
ball back out the circle to Attacker 1 if need to relive pressure.
Easier …
Attacker 2 can collect ball standing still; Attacker 2 can pass
ball into corner for a new attacker; Can have one defender in
the circle instead of two.
Harder …
Only two Attackers allowed in circle so if Attacker 1 moves
into the circle Attacker 2 or 3 must leave circle (rotations);
Attackers must pass ball 3 times in circle before shooting; Can
only one-touch pass in the circle
