Exercise Objectives:
This Rondo game is designed to encourage possession and forward passing “through the line” in the diamond formation.
Coaching Pointers:
Position two groups of for in each grid. Groups are restricted to their grids.
Place a defender inside the center of each grid and two defenders on the halfway line. (as in the diagram above) the two defenders on the halfway lie must stay on the line, they cannot enter the grid.
The drill starts with one group attempting to get 6 passes before they try to penetrate the two middle defenders to switch the play to the opposite grid
(through the line). A goal is awards for each successful switch.
Change the defending group every few minutes.
Field Preparation:
- Small field 20 yards x 40 yards. Split field into two half’s.
- Full size goals, cones, ball and bibs.
