2v2 to Goal, #10

Set Up:

There are 12-15 players set up in the attacking third, with a 1v1 inside of the penalty area and lines of players starting at the cones. The Feeder begins play with a pass out to the 1st attacker. Both players release from the cones with the Feeder’s first touch, and play continues 2v2 to goal. If the defenders win the ball, they can score in the two small goals set up outside of the penalty area. The Feeder alternates service to both flanks, and the players in the penalty area switch out after five minutes.

Coaching Points:

1.  Look to get to the end line for a cross or a setback into the penalty area. 

2.  Hold your run or check away from the ball until your teammate is in a position to pass.

3.  Watch the play develop, and then choose between a near post or a far post run.

Progressions:

1.  Progress to 3v3, using both flanks.
