Set Up:
Eight players are set up on a small field, with pairs of players starting on the end lines. Play begins with the 1st attacker serving a long, driven ball into the 1v1 at the other end of the field. The 2nd attacker attempts to flick the ball on with his head, and the defender tries to head the ball back towards the 1st attacker. The players in the 1v1 are allowed to move before the kick is taken. After completion, the ball is served back across the grid to the next pair. After five minutes, the players form new 1v1 pairings.
Coaching Points:
1. Push back into the defender, and then run towards the ball in order to flick it on.
2. Take the defender away from the server, and then check back to the ball.
3. The attacker should make body contact and feel for the defender behind him.
Progressions:
1. Progress to 2v2.
