Lesson 2: Keep away (stationary at pylons)

Tactical Problem: - maintaining possession of the ball
Skill development: - keep away from a defender
                            - quick passes and fakes
                            - continous play amongst 3 players

Teaching Points:

Tactic:
- decision of where to pass to and what type of pass to use in order to elude the defender
- defender anticipates where the ball will go

Skill:
- 3 vs.1 triangle formation
- 3 offensive players stationary at cones
- no dribbling and must pass continously keeping the ball away from the defender
- defender is situated in the middle of 3 offensive players


 
 

 

Organizational Points: 

- 5 groups of 4
- cones set up beforehand
- designate groups to a set of cones
- rotate defenders when whistle is blown
- keep moving, must pass within 2 seconds

Extensions:
- add dribbling
- change the size of the grid
