Session plan

Notes

This session includes several activities that encourage running/moving with the ball. The stop/start move is an excellent skill to enable the players to off-balance defenders. The 1v1 7 gates game is a multi-directional activity that encourages players to use on-ball skills and scanning to beat defenders. In the 2v2+2+2 activity, we are requiring the central player to use a minimum of 3 touches. This will require the player to determine on receiving the ball how to play into space, potentially feint a defender, then pass if appropriate. The progression would be to have outside players switch with the central passer when receiving the ball - coming into the grid. The 3v3 game should create a lot of opportunities for players to engage on the ball. Finally, the 6v6+2 activity will force players to consider how to move on the ball and how to find supporting positions off the ball within the rules of the activity.
