Objective of the Practice:
This is a great practice to help improve quick passing and decision making. Emphasis is on 'one' and "two' touch
passing, angles of support, disguise and communication.
Field Preparation:
Area 20 x 20 yards. 8 players. 1 ball. Cones. Colored bibs.
Coaching Points:
Play 4 v 3 in a grid 10 yards by 10 yards. The four player start with possession of the ball. Three defenders are placed inside the grid with a resting player on the outside.
The four player with the ball must attempt to achieve 10 consecutive passes to get a goal. The 3 pressuring defenders must try to win the ball. As soon as the 3 defenders win the ball the 4th resting defender enters the grid. They now become the attacking team. At the same time one of the attacking players must leave and they become the defending team.
Start the practice with free play then develop drill by conditioning play to "two" then "one" touch passing.
