- Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players
Setup
Pitch: The set-up is built twice, for the right and for the left. Large cones mark a line representing an imaginary back four about 22 metres from the goal line. Two starting cones of the same colour stand about two metres from the halfway line; a small cone in the other colour stands in front of the imaginary back four.
Equipment: 4 large red and 4 large yellow cones, 3 small red and 3 small yellow cones, 1 goal and several balls.
Players: Midfielders A and B as well as Player C; in addition a goalkeeper.
Procedure
- Player A passes to Player B.
- Player B lays the ball back first time.
- Player A hits a lofted ball to Player C, who has set off but is still positioned in front of the row of cones.
- Player C controls the ball and either lays it back into the cut-back area with a 90-degree pass or crosses in front of the goal.
- Player A runs in short and Player B runs in long.
Tip
- Player C pays attention to timing and offside and sets off in behind at speed.
- Player A watches the run of Player C.
- Player A plays the ball just before Player C reaches the row of cones.
- Players A and B move away from the ball and run into the penalty area as the cross comes in.
- In doing so they attack the near post and the far post.
