Set Up
Put 3 offensive midfielder and 3 defensive midfields on the playing field. Add in 2 transfer attack players around goal line extended. The game starts with a live 3v3, if a midfielder dodges the alley, and they don’t have an outlet, they can move the ball to a transfer player, who can then look for backside scoring opportunities amongst the midfielder.
Coaching Points and Principles
- Work out of your team sets/spacing with the midfield offensively. We want players to see how we use dodging to create offenses by getting the defense to slide
- Defense can slide, double teams, and need to protect the crease using their “house” principles
Progressions
- Add in token defenders with the attack, making passes a little harder
- put 4v4 in the midfield area
