North-South-East-West
Objective – First touch next action
GameFocusResetProgression
5v5 game (can be more or less depending on group size)
- Reds play one way with blues playing the other
- Objective is to pass the ball across the box either direct or using intermediate play
- Receiver can pass direct to receiver so players must protect the line to goal
- Play 2.5 minute blocks – 30 second rest
Rules
- Receivers must be between the cones
- When ball passed to the receiver, then they sub with the passer
Scoring
- 1 point for every successful pass to a receiver
- 1 point for every clean win/ intercept
Feedback very much based on technical detail for players
ATTACKING
- Make the extra pass
- Play to space
- ABT
- Look to receive so you can threaten forwards
- Focus on quality of basics
DEFENDING
- Find your players
- Forehand defence
- Protect the centre
- If the ball goes out – restarts by sending a ball in at random to keep tempo high
- Free hits can go direct to receiver
- Each team gets a limited number of balls
- How many goals per 2.5 mins
