Group Game: Number 6 between the Centre-Backs

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 10-15 players, 16-22+ players

Setup

Pitch: Cones mark out the playing area and a wide central zone right across the area. At both ends there are two mini goals next to each other, so four in total.

Equipment: Cones, 4 mini goals and several balls.

Players: Two teams of seven in their own bib colour; each team has two centre-backs outside the central zone in front of their own goals.

Procedure

  • The game is 7 vs 7.
  • In the middle there is a central zone; goals may only be scored from there.
  • The two centre-backs outside the central zone may join in the game, but must not cross the line.

Tip

  • The centre-backs should not block the goal, but follow the run of play and be free for combinations.
  • What is trained above all is the way the midfield moves the play from defence into attack and the other way round.
