Set Up:
The two teams play 5v5 with no restrictions. After scoring - or when a ball goes to the GK - the attacking team must send the two players closest to the goal to the end line as the goalkeeper re-starts play for the opposing team. The attackers can then use the opportunity to attack 5v3 as the two defenders run around any cone set up on the end line before returning to play
Coaching Points:
1. Speed of Play - Once the attack is up to speed, maintain or increase the speed of the attack.
2. Attacking Runs – Players without the ball must make forward runs. A dribbler should not attack on his own.
3. “Switching Off” – Stay involved in play, and do not become a spectator.
Progressions:
1. The two attackers furthest away from goal run to the end line after scoring or when the GK has the ball.
2. The three attackers closest to the goal run to the end line after scoring or when the GK has the ball.
