Four squares unlimited touches
A tactical drill in which the players have to pass the ball to each other trying to gain offensive timing in order to attract the rival and then play the ball to mid-distance players or to the ones who are far away from the ball.
Zonal Defense: Move forward or backwards
In every movement of the ball we do, the defensive situation changes. Did the ball go forward or backwards? Is the player on the ball pressed? Does he have options to pass the ball to a free player? These are some of the several decisions that we have to practice.
Blocking the Receiver and Defensive Transition
To get quickly to the player with the ball will help us winning the ball back easier. To do this, we will need to be good at defensive vigilances. We will practice them constantly in this drill.
Shifting, Pressing on the flanks
We will practice ball conservation, width, game pace, change of pace, shifting, pressing, coverages and defensive coordination, all at the same time.
2 goals: Vigilances + Transition
Offensive and defensive vigilances in a polarized drill (with orientation), in which we will be conditioning the game bearing in mind that we will then either lose the ball or win it back. With this, we will rise up the level of the offensive and defensive transition.
Marking and Vigilances Vs Losing the Marker and Finishing
In this drill you have to set up a rule that will make your offensive players improve the runs for losing the defenders and will make the defensive players improve the vigilances and the individual marking.
To move the ball upfield and tactical balance.
There are teams that, while they play they get out of shape constantly. With this drill you would be able to improve the offensive tactical balance.
Hexagon Rondo
This is a very special space in order to make the players stay in triangles first and then add another player creating a diamond. Doing this we will be able to give 3 supports at least to the player on the ball, becoming a really difficult situation for the defenders to defend.
Multi-Offensive Work
A very complete tactical drill both at an offensive and defensive level. The players have to make a lot of decisions in a very limited time.
Numerical Superiority/Inferiority (4vs3, 3vs2, 2vs1,…)
To identify superiority and inferiority for a right and quick decision making both offensively and defensively is a really fun drill for all ages.
