2v2+2

I) 2v2+2

Set Up

  • Grid is 10x15  
    • You can make it longer than normal to really have to focus on moving out of the one area with the ball and into another part of the field
  • Everyone has a partner.  Each grid has a Blue team, Red, Team, and Green team.

Procedure

  • The two Blues on the side hit one touch passes back and forth
  • The Red player in the gate, times when to intercept a pass
    • As the game progresses the players hitting one touches can try to score in the gate with a one touch if they read when the defender is going to try to intercept their pass
  • When the Red player intercepts the pass, she plays it to her teammate on the far side of the grid
  • The two Blues now become defenders in the grid
  • The two Green neutrals are now live as well
  • The Red's and Green's go 4v2 and try to score on the far gate
  • If the Blue's win the ball, they are 4v2 with the neutrals trying to score

Key Points

  • Quality one touch passes
  • Recogniztion of the process of defending
