8 versus 8 in zones

Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
Training Set Main point

Setup

A field with 3 zones is marked out with cones. A goal is built on both sides of the field, into which a goalkeeper positiones. 2 teams of 8 players are formed. The balls are distributed to the goals.

Procedure

It is played 8 against 8. Depending on how quickly the teams switch from attack to defense (and vice versa), there are always predominance situations that should be exploited by the quick attempt to finish the goal. A dedicated offensive and defensive player play in the end zone. A maximum of one other attacker / defender may run into this zone and an offensive player with an opponent dribble into it. The defending team plays pressing and tries to keep the opponent under pressure. The playing field is divided into two end and one middle zone.

Tip

- This form of play requires an enormous amount of running and understanding of the game and is characterized by constant communication and an interplay between the two halves of the game. - The teams should be constantly on the move. The players constantly try to offer themselves and to be available to their fellow players as a reference station. - The goal for the defenders is either to get possession of the ball or to push the attacker who has the ball to the side into the goal-safe area and to block the pass route to the goal / to the teammate by doubling or indenting. - 8 cones, 2 large field goal (s)
