Possession & Awareness 1V1

Sportplan is a very helpful resource and I really enjoy the wonderful...
David

DESCRIPTION

Using Whole pitch area

Set up - 1 Server, 1GK and 2 Teams

4V4 in 1 half and 1V1 (or 2v2) in other half.

The Ball starts with the server who plays it into the attacking team (blue).

The Blue team have to pass the ball around and find a pass to the 'forward' in the other half. Once the pass is made they must stay in their own half.

The 'forward' needs to be moving around to create space and 'lose' the defender.

Once the pass is made to the forward he plays 1V1.

As soon as the pass is made to the forward, the server plays another ball into the 4V4 and play continues

If thethe forward is still playing 1V1 then the team must keep possession and wait for the pass to become available

If the defending team(red) win the ball then they can play to their own player who also has to play 1V1.

PROGRESSIONS

  1. Once the pass is made to the attacker then an overload of 2V1 (or 3V2) can be created for the attacking team
  2. 1 attacker and 1 defender can join in with the forward
  3. All players can join in but 2 defenders MUST hold their position

 

COACHING POINTS

COMMUNICATE - The forward needs to make themselves available and let their team know they want the ball

HOW DO I RECEIVE THE BALL- Get body position ready to receive the pass - Sideways between defender and ball, receive on back foot.

MOVEMENT - find space to create the pass. Lose your marker. Forward needs to move the defender away from the play and then move closer.

AWARENESS - Play with head up and look to see if ready to receive the ball

PROGRESSION

RECOVER - Once the ball is lost be prepared to work hard to get back and defend
