Goal Scoring From Possession
This small sided soccer game focuses on developing possession, transition, speed of play and finishing skills under pressure.
Organisation
Cones are used to mark an approximately 30x30 meters square.
Two small goals and two normal sized goals are placed on the lines of the area.
Two goalkeepers are involved into this soccer drill and one more neutral player is also takes part in the exercise. These three are identified with the same color.
Players are split into three teams of 5 (the SSG can be played with different number of players from 4 up to 7).
Two teams are playing in the area while the third team have a rest in one of the corners.
Description and Graphics
One team tries to build up possession against the other with the help of the Joker player and the goalkeepers.
When the team in possession reaches a determined number of passes (6-8-10), the players can score to one of the four goals. In this case the goalkeepers' aim to save the shots. When the attacker team scores, they sprint to one of the corners of the playing area.
The third, resting team sprints to build up possession.
If the defending team intercepts the ball, the roles are changed, so they can build up possession against the team, which loses the ball.
In case the two teams cannot score for too long, they can be changed by the coach as well.
