4 v. 2 in 2 zones to 1 goal with keeper
Organization
- play in an area of 20 x 30 yards ( 2 of each)
- 2 areas of 20 w x 15 l
Description
Play starts with 4 v 2 in a possession game – when the 2 inside players win the ball, they play 2 v. 1 to leave the zone and then play 2 v. 2 in the other zone trying to score a goal. The 2 waiting players players are the defenders in the second zone – should they win the ball, they return it to the 4 players of the first zone and the original 2 inside players and defend. If a goal is scored, the scoring group remains in zone 2 and the other group goes to zone 1 and plays 4 v. 2
Coaching Points
- Possession team has only 1 aim: keep the ball
- Defending 2 players must win the ball, win a 2 v. 1 duel, and then play 2 v. 2 and try to score
- The 2 waiting players must defend and play out to the possession players
- If they concede a goal, then they become the defenders in the first zone
- Divide into groups of 4 and rotate the players into different positions
