OrganizationField
: half field

Implementation

General

• Play direction of the game
• Goals in the middle of the field to stimulate awareness of the context of the game (from where do I defend, where do I score?).
• 1:1 : the trainer plays a ball to Orange 1 or Blue 2. Defender's goal is to prevent a goal and score himself.
• 2:1 : The trainer plays a ball to Orange 1 or Blue 2. When Orange 1 gets the ball, Orange 3 can join in the playing field of Orange 1
• Orange 1 and 2 play a 2:1 on Blue 4 (same if Orange 3 gets the ball (Section B)).
• 2:2 : Same as 2:1, but if Blue 2 gets the ball, Blue 4 may join the attack in the section of Orange 1 (Section A).

Explanation

3 (4) against 2 + goalkeeper

OrganisationField
: demarcated space (on half a field)

General

• The form starts when blue 1 passes to orange 1.
• Orange 1, 2 and 3 ( possibly 4) try to score in the goal.
• Blue 1 and 2 try, by working together, to take over possession of the ball on their strong side and then to score in one of the little goals on the centre field (circle size about 3 metres).

The form stops when:

• Orange scores in the goal.
• Blue scores in the conversion in one of the little goals on the half way line.
• The ball goes over the back line.

Exceptions:

• Ball over the sideline is a normal strike.
• Foul is a normal free hit.

Tips on ball possession

• Look before taking the ball (pre-scanning) and recognise space.
• Take free hits and hits as quickly as possible.
• Use push passes.

Tips on non-ball possession

• Work together (cover each other's backs), give pressure on the ball, keep the ball on your defensive forehand side (fake space).
• Force a pass to the back or force a pass wide; this is better than a deep pass.
• Make sure you are always between the ball and your own goal

Switching tips

• On losing the ball:
  • Keep pressure on the ball straight away
  • Get between the ball and your own goal as quickly as possible and help your team-mate
• On winning the ball:
  • Look for the free space
  • Play a confident pass or accelerate strongly yourself.
• Make it easier
  • Vary the method of passing (e.g. push pass) or initial pass to another player.
• Make it more difficult
  • Increase Pressure:
    • Who scores the most goals in 10 ball starts);
    • can Orange 1,2,3 score within 30 sec.

Goal: Build up by moving the ball.

Instruction:

1. 1 starts with the ball and plays it to 2
2. 2 plays the ball back to 1
3. 1 plays the ball to 3
4. 3 plays the ball to 4
5. 4 starts the attack and may choose how he does this

Point of attention: The defenders try to get rid of the ball as quickly and skillfully as possible

• Two teams with substitutes, substitutions are made when a goal is scored.
• Each person defends a goal, on each field there are 5 goals,
• so there are also 5 people who defend these goals.
• If a goal is scored in your goal, you have to sit on the sidelines and you become a substitute.
• A new player (substitute) from the side enters the field and will defend the goal.
• If a goal is scored, it is 1 point.
• The team that has the most points at the end of the game is the winner.

Overplaying to score

• Two players continuously play the ball over
• until one of them is so close to the goal
• that he can score in the goal.

Variation 2-1 situation:

• Under pressure from the defender, the attackers must now play together and try to score.
• The defender can score a point by conquering the ball and then dribbling over the dead ball line.
• This is the short side without a goal.
