- Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
- Training Set Main point
- Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players
Setup
• Cones to mark the playing field
• 2 goals
• Divide players into pairs (2-player teams).
Procedure
The game starts with 2 against 2. Every time a pair concedes a goal, a new pair from the same team starts with the ball on the field. If a round takes too long, both pairs leave the field. After the ball goes out of play, the goalkeeper puts a new ball into play.
Tip
Coaching Points
• The player near the ball pushes out, and the player away from the ball provides cover in a slight depth formation in the center. • If the ball is played sideways, the two defenders switch positions.
