drawing Relay
Put the players in a row next to each other.
About 1 meter in front of them on the ground is a tennis ball.

  • Have them put their feet slightly apart.
  • Quickly run -dribble- in place.
At the trainer's instruction they do while dribbling:
  • Hands on knees.
  • Hands on toes.
  • Hands on shoulders.
  • Hands forward.
  • Hands in the air.
  • When the trainer calls Ball!, they grab the ball as fast as they can.

  • Repeat and throw the commands interchangeably for variety.
  • Make 2 rows facing each other.
  • Between the 2 rows there is a ball.
  • Players start dribbling at high speed.
  • On signal trainer they shift to the left or right.
  • When "ball" is called, they grab the ball and sprint to the sideline.
  • The one without the ball tries to intercept.
drawing Hat shifting
  • Offset from position.
  • Ball to 1 of the builders; only to corner/circle if they are completely free and can score goal.
  • Circle to the non-ball side.
  • Likely MA following up is caught early on by the MV=> outside builders should pressure from outside to inside. Opposite buildup, corner, circle start up.
  • When build-up starts MA must run to that position.
  • See if they can play variation; cross, long change, corner behind build-up and so on.
drawing Fast attack
  • Players divide into left - and right corner with ball
  • 2 goalkeepers. 1 goalkeeper will play on - half break
  • Left starts, sprint to center, get ball and close 9 yards free
  • Player who threw becomes blocker for the next player coming from the right
  • This player to the shot becomes the blocker for the next player
  • Until everyone has had their turn. Then switch sides. Goalkeeper also changes
drawing Blocks and shot after short break
Explanation quick middle-out:
  • Only 1 player with ball needs to be on the center line, the goalkeeper can already blow the whistle.
  • 2 teams, 2 goalkeepers in 1 goal area, so 2 stations.
  • 2 defenders - 2 attackers.
Version 1: quick middle-out
  • Keeper gets shot at goal, how does the defending side then get the ball to the center line as fast as possible with the foot, before the opposing team has run across the center line.
Version 2: ball possession
  • Goalkeeper gets grab ball. How does the defending side get the ball across the center line as quickly as possible while the opposing team is allowed to defend?
  • Points of attention:
    • Goalkeeper may run with ball in circle, and outside circle as field player -do not run with ball out of circle.
    • Connectability field players.
  • LO - MO - RO occupy + 1 ball
  • 2 defenders, start opposite LO and MO
  • Shift to middle > Jump and tap then defend immediately
  • This is the signal for the attack to start
  • Builders rush the ball around and create a breakthrough
drawing Breakthrough in middle
  • 2 teams are lined up facing each other on 1 half
  • Coach bounces the ball and players run forward and back to their positions
  • The attackers get the ball
  • The defending team can intercept and score by putting the ball in the hoop near the center line
  • Blue throws the ball to the goalie and runs to the pylon.
  • Keeper catches the ball and throws a break out on the running blue player.
  • Blue takes the ball, runs around the pylon and tries to finish from the 9 meters.
  • Optionally, a defender can be put around the 9 to defend.
drawing Breakout

  • 2 attackers
  • 2 defenders
  • 2 defenders stand on the line

  • LO plays pass to in starting MO, RO starts in behind LO
  • MO plays pass to in-starting RO
  • RO rounds off
