Individual Tactics 5

2 vs. 2 in three fields on one goal

Drill Description

  • Set up three 15 x 15-yard fields in a row about 30 yards in front of a goalkeeper.
  • Three 2 vs. 2's are running simultaneously, one in each of the three fields.
  • The object in each is for the team with the ball to keep is as long as possible.
  • At the coach's signal, the team with the ball in Field A (then Field B, then Field C) moves toward the goal and tries to score as quickly as possible.

Coaching Tips

  • React quickly to changes in tempo.
  • Chose the right defense tactics for the situation.
  • At the coach's signal, only the player in possession of the ball at that moment leaves the field to play 1 vs. 1 against the goalkeeper.
  • Make it a team competition: Two players in each field belong to Team A, and two belong to Team B. The points from all 2 vs. 2's are added to make team totals.
