EXPLANATION
Field is divided into 3 grids – game starts 5v2 in one grid – if the 2 win the ball, they switch to the other grid, join their teammates, 2 of the former attackers also join as defenders
Count 10 passes = 1 pt
PROGRESSION
In 5v2, limit number of passes and/or touches
COACHING POINTS
Attackers – look to form rondo shape – try to move in and out of the middle, look to pass ball around rather than through opponents
Defenders – attempt to corner an attacker on the ball, look for poor first touch or telegraphed pass, on transition, quickly switch the ball
