LOGINFive seconds to score
Why use it
Fast breaks from your teams’ own half of the pitch are great ways to create goal scoring opportunities.
Set up
You need balls, bibs, cones and two goals. Set up an area 30 x 20. We used 10 outfield players and 2 neutral goalkeepers in the session
How to play
The goalkeeper starts with the ball and passes out to one of the teams. Both teams must be in the same half of the pitch in this case the team in possession has to stay in this half of the pitch until they can break out and score. They must keep possession and try to create space so they can go into the opposite half of the pitch. Players attack the opposite goal to the area they are playing in. If the defending team wins the ball they become the attackers and must try to get into the opposite end and attack the goal in 5 seconds. You can put a number of passes before they can attack or give an extra point for
Technique
Good possession and shielding skills. Fast passing, dribbling and support movement. Accurate shooting.
