3v3 +3 neutrals. Possession game to play forward and out to target neutrals
midfielder passes to the GK and runs to create a diamond with the two defs. Can we play out 4v2 to waiting midfielder?
GK, 4 defenders and 2 midfielders play out 7v5 against reds. Team must complete 5 passes to score a goal
Wide player off the line and between full back and centre back. Now the wide player is in a position to attack centre back and shoot at goal
Wide player now has overlapping full back to use in order to provide a cross for the centre forward
Now wide player slides a through pass for the centre forward to make a blindside run
Ball now goes to full back 1st, the wide player now makes a 2nd run to receive a ball down the side of the defence
Small distances allows for interchanges in position and quick combination play through overlaps and one-twos.
