Procedure

Conduct games in tournament mode. The two neutrals alternate in the games, resulting in a 4 plus 1 against 4 scenario. The neutrals always play with the team in possession of the ball.

  • The exercise should be performed with the highest intensity.
  • For more endurance training, "winner stays on the field" can be played.
