• Attacker Instructions: • Possession with a purpose is key. • Think forward, look forward, play forward - especially the CB’s. • Move the ball - short, short, long. • Identify moments to move out of a passing lane, to draw an opponent out and open a bigger passing lane for CB to 'score'. • Go around or over the mini goals if CB cannot score in them. • Defender Instructions: • Shut off the middle, don’t get penetrated. • Force passes wide and then trap the attackers. • Attacking Transition: • Is the opportunity to score in the mini goals on? • Always look down the field for the furthest pass forward. • Defensive Transitions: • Change of attitude to aggressive defence. • Players away from the ball should close off the middle of the pitch.
