Objective: To develop possession play with high pressure in limited space and time (with support play).
Description: 11 v 10 in an area 45 yards x 35 yards, we have one team with 1 GK and 4 players in white (the defenders),
2 in blue (the centre midfielders) and 4 in yellow (the AM, LF, RF and striker) using the 4-2-3-1. The other
team have 10 players who are all wearing red. The red team are applying pressure high up the pitch. The
objective is to play the ball out from the back under pressure from the opposition with limited space and
time.
The players look to work through the lines and back; the ball moves from the white to blue, and then back to
white who supports. The ball is then passed from white to yellow and back to blue who supports and finally
to yellow.
If the multi-colour team completes 6-8 passes or keep possession for 8-10 seconds they get 1 point. If the
ball is played from the GK, to white, to blue, to yellow and all the way back to the GK they get 2 points.
If the reds win possession, they must score within 5-6 passes in the goal. This is a quick transition for the
multi-colour team from attack to defence.
Different Rules:
1. Whites have 2-3 touches, blues have 1 touch and yellows have unlimited touches.
