Tues. May. 15, 6P, Alimagnet We will be working on the skills of: Team Attack - Crossing and Basic Patterns 1 **Warm-Up 1. "1000" touches - 1. inside/inside 2. inside/outside 3. outside/inside 4. laces 5. laces tap-tap 6. cut 7. chop 8. Toe touches moving forward alternating feet 9. Toe touches moving backwards alternating feet. 10. Side hop rolls moving forward, first right foot then back with left. 11. Outside foot touches with "fast feet" between touches. 12. Speed Changes with sudden stop, ("Hop-stop" or Magic Hop) 13. Outside to inside roll right foot across body, touch forward with left foot. 14. Inside to outside roll right foot out to the (right) side, touch forward with right foot. 15. Skip touches. (Skip forward touching the ball with the front foot, each skip.) 16. "Run Throughs" Smother and trap running through a tossed ball. 2. Groups of 3 passing - short, short, long **2v0 2 lines near touchline at midfield, cone near corner of penalty box, outside line players each have a ball. Go - wing player runs/dribbles down side past cone and crosses to other player making a bending run to near or far post. Coaching points - speed down line, ball control near turn, turn hips toward target, appropriate pass (surface of foot, pace, height, placement), striker - speed, readiness to receive ball, 1 or 2 touch to goal. Next: switch to other side of field. **2v2 same as above but 3 sec after 1st 2 players go, next 2 players follow as D. **3 Across the Top - 3v0 patterns 1. straight - 2 wing, 1 center near midfield, center w/ ball, offsides line w/ cones. go - Center sends 1 wing, other wing makes far post run, 1st wing centers. Must stay onside! Coaching points as above. 2. basic weave - 3 at midfield, center w/ ball. center sends wing and leads w/ short pass. center overlaps that wing and receives pass down the line. Center continues and looks to cross to wings making post runs. Coaching points: communication between wings on runs, 3rd player timing run. 3. V - 2 wings near midfield, center near offside line, back to goal, wings w/ balls. Go - wing pass give-and-go with center. center curls away and makes post run. wing can then shoot, or cross to center or far wing. Add: sometimes when center receives first pass wing calls "turn" - center turns and shoots. Coaching points: accurate passing, preparation of receiving surface, move away from (pretend) pressure, solid 1 or 2 touch shots, shot selection **scrimmage - w/ keepers. no restrictions. Look to send 1. Use curved post runs. 3rd man running. **killers or PKs. **Talk - Teamwork. Sportsmanship. Tournament recap.
