Warm Up - Juggling - foot and knee juggling - around the world
Crosses, Timing and Post runs - 1. One line about 30 yds out near
the touchline, each player with a ball, coach at penalty spot. Player
dribbles hard down the line, cuts slightly in and crosses to coach.
Good cross - coach passes back to end of line, bad cross - player chases
and returns to line. 2. Add a line at other touchline w/ players curling
toward pk spot. 3. Add near post run line outside of curl line and
far post run line inside of curl line. Var - add trailing D chasing
first player w/ ball. Var 2 - also add D in the box and GK.
3-on-1 (2) pass and shoot, with GK - one line at the sideline
with a bunch of balls(throw-ins), two lines facing the goal(forwards),
one line to the side of the goal (GKs), and one line to the side, half-way
between the goal and the forwards (defense). The players are equally
distributed among the lines.
Go - the first child at the sideline does a throw-in to the closer
forward. They then start moving toward the goal dribbling the ball.
Work the ball, and then shoot (remember to choose, and try to hit, a target).
There will be 1 defensive player (from the defense line) who will try to
intercept the pass and kick it past the attacking players, and a Goal Keeper.
Each player shifts to the end of the next line.
