Run this soccer drill with at least
9
players but no more than
18.
This soccer drill should last approximately
20 minutes
on a
small field.
Make sure you have the following equipment:
cones, alternate jersey, .
Start by setting up a 12X12 grid. 5 attackers wear Alternate jersies, and the remaining players should pair up as defenders behind one cone with the supply of balls.
The first pair of defenders play a ball into the 5 attackers, and step into the grid and become defenders. The attackers should continue passing undil the defenders win the ball, or the ball is knocked out of play. Once the play is dead, the next pair of defenders play into the same 5 attackers, and play resumes.
* Adjust grid (larger = easier; smaller = harder)
* Introduce splits (split defenders, defenders do 10 pushups every split)
* Adjust the number of attackers (4 attackers vs 2 defenders)
