Four-defense chain player opening - game / version 10

At the level of the penalty area, 4 defenders are positioned next to each other at a distance of approx. 12-17 m. On the left outline is the LAF, then the LIV, then the RIV and on the right side the RAV. At the level of the center line, 4 midfielders are compared as follows: opposite the to LAF the LAM, opposite to the LIV the HLM, opposite to the RIV the HRM and opposite to the RAV the RAM. The players face each other. To get a feeling for the different positions, the two central defender positions can alternatively be taken by the goalkeepers and the two half positions in the middle by the two strikers. The LAV has the ball. A cone can be placed at the starting position of the players as a guide. The following player positions are available in the game system: TH - goalkeeper LAV - left full-back LIV - left central defender RIV - right central defender RAV - right full-back LAM - left outer midfielder HLM - half left midfielder HRM - half right midfielder RAM - right outer midfielder LST RST - left - right striker

The opening of the game with a focus on diagonal passes will be rehearsed. The player opens via the left full-back. A direct passing game (only with one contact) is rehearsed. The following pass sequence takes place: 1 - LAV plays diagonally to HLM 2 - HLM plays diagonally to RIV 3 - RIV plays diagonally to LAM 4 - LAM plays longline to LAV. This pass variant can be trained as an endless loop. However, the side of the opening player should always be switched. That means also start the pass sequence via the RAV. In this case the LIV, HRM and RAM are included. Alternative: - Depending on the level of performance, the passing game can also take place with two contacts. The ball is accepted with the first contact and continued with the second. - As a spatial marking aid for the players, their positions can be marked with a cone.
