EXPLANATION

Grid organized as shown – length > width

Score point for ball played between long edges

On loss of possession, outside player steps in to create 2v1, when ball is recovered, game resumes as 4v2

PROGRESSION

Limit outside touch count

When defenders win possession, they must try to exit the grid with the ball under control

COACHING POINTS

Attackers – look for quick combinations to progress ball, encourage 1-touch when available, look for body shapes, ball played to forward foot

Defenders – keep ball in front of you, communicate roles (pressure, cover), show patience, be willing to press ball on poor 1st touch
