Organisation

Sticks are placed as shown to mark the opponent's defending line and draw the passing channels.
Players are arranged according to the 4:2:3:1 formation. In the holding midfielder's position and in the defender's position place 1-1 player. In the attacker's positions you can place two or more players. In these positions players change role and they have resting periods while others work.

Description and Graphics

Soccer tactics exercises are performed in both sides. All 10 players are involved in the soccer drills. Resting players are in the positions and can be used as passive defenders. Exercises begin from the defending line. According to this playing style the main principles must be kept in each soccer tactics exercise. In this soccer drill the exercises are performed without defenders. This kind of attacking style the switchover and the collecting of the cleared balls by the opponent's defenders are key factors. Midfielders and attackers must concentrate and move behind the central attacker and anticipate the situations. Innervate the movements in this soccer drill but practise these situations with active defenders in game situations.
