Drill Description

• The players are divided into three teams of four. Teams A and B play 4 vs. 4 in 25 x 35-yard field on two goals with goalkeepers. The players on Team C position themselves evenly along he two sidelines.
• Team A tries to score as many goals as possible, passing among its own players and the wall players. when Team B gets the ball, it tries to keep possession as long as possible and prevent A from scoring, again with the help of the wall players. After a four-minute round and a brief active rest period, Teams A and B switch roles. Which team can score more goals?
• After a somewhat longer res period (which may be filled with simple shooting exercises, for example) one of the teams on the field trades places with the extra team.

Coaching Tips
