2v1 | Pressure is Behind the Attacker

📌 Breaking fast when presented with overloads.

Set-Up:

➡️ 25 by 25 space with a 5-yard shaded zone. Each team has a pair of mini goals to attack. Add a coned gate for each team to use as a start point for the practice.

👕 Teams: Both ⚫️’s and 🔴’s are attacking into defending.

How to Play:

➡️ This is a fast-paced game of constant 2 v 1 attacks, the ⚫️’s attack first, followed by 🔴’s. The practice continues like this regardless of who scores.

➡️ The central players ⚫️ and 🔴 (1) stay on the field all of the time. They alternate between being a defender and an attacker. Each time they receive the ball as an attacker, they must play it back to their teammate before going for the goal.

➡️ ⚫️(2) starts the practice with a pass into ⚫️ (1). ⚫️ (1) must pass back to the ⚫️(2) before they can combine 2 v 1 against the defender 🔴(1).

➡️ Goals can be scored by getting into the shaded zone and finishing into a mini-goal. Defending players score by dribbling back to their start point or by passing into one of their mini goals.

➡️ Once an attack is over, roles flip so ⚫️’s now defend and the 🔴’s attack.

🚧 Constraints:

🏆Reward: 1st team to score 10 goals wins the round

👨‍🏫 Review: Securing possession with back to play and the decision to dribble or pass.

🚫 Restriction: Attackers have 10 touches max to score a goal.
