Coverages, Exchange and Defensive Delay
Individual challenges and basic offensive and defensive micro-associations
Conditioned Game: Gives and Goes and changing pace
To play at a different pace depending on the zone of the field where we are at that moment, is a good way for making right decisions and read the game in a right way.
Movable Rondo
Regular tactical rondos have plenty of small and quick decisions but do not have any movement. If, to a regular tactical rondo we include the possibility/need for deciding whether the player has to or does not have to move, it will make our players achieve a higher level at decision making, since they will be considering teammates, rivals, the ball and the free spaces.
Double Box: Counterattack and pressure after losing possession
Either to advance in the game after winning the ball back or to avoid it are the objectives of a lot of styles of play. We will practice it in this intense drill in which we will make our players improve the transitions. The dimensions will be the double of the box.
Hexagonal rondo to work the switch of play, the players profiles and deciding before receiving the ball.
One of the constant aspects of the game is to play easy (the coach asks so many times for this) and be able to differentiate when to play with the farthest or with the intermediate players in order to overcome rivals (both attacking and defending).
Small Sided Game 2v2 high pressure
Small sided tactical game in which we will reward the correct high press. The player will learn how to fix the distances in front of the player with the ball, will learn how to delay the game defensively, coverages, defensive exchanges and when the right moment to do a tackle is or to make the team in possession lose the ball.
Penetrate lines, Improve offensive body orientation
Position game in order to advance on the field. You will practice the right movements in order to get the ball and progress on the field. At the same time, we will practice de defensive coordination and to get in shape defensively in the right way.
Transitions with support from forwards players
To start the attack playing wide and to identify when a good moment is to play inside. To make a run in order to lose the markers in the right moment is key to finally get the ball or not.
Ball Circulation and changing the pace
You will make your player achieve a higher tactical intelligence level by making him decide whether to progress with the ball or retain the ball looking for a better option to progress.
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.
