12v12 in Four Quarters of a Half Field

- Triangles must constantly be formed to create passing options. - The passing game alternates between many short passes and long passes to switch the zone. - The teams should be in constant motion. The players constantly try to make themselves available and offer passing options to their teammates. - The team without possession tries to cleverly close down passing lanes and spaces and constantly applies pressure on the ball carrier and his nearby teammates. - The team waiting for the ball must make runs to get open and signal to the team in possession by calling out that they are available. - Getting stuck in tight spaces should be avoided. Therefore, switches of play and through balls should be played regularly. - The passing options should take an open body position (with the sideline at their back) so they can always see the next passing option. - This game format requires an enormous running volume and game intelligence and is characterised by constant communication and a constant back-and-forth between the quadrants. - This game format develops short passing play, playing in tight spaces, quick switches of play, and places high demands on the players. - 9 cones
