This week's exercises are from our book, 'Counter Attacking in the Modern Game'
In an area roughly 20 x 20 (depending on the technical ability of your players and the defensive acuity of your focus defending group) you will play 4 v 4 for possession. However, there is a midline in the grid that only two players from the opposing team may cross to try to defend the four.
The team in possession with four will get a point for every ten consecutive passes they can connect in their end.
They will also get a point if they lose possession but can win it back prior to the ball transitioning to the other end of the grid where they would need to send two players to defend.
The team of four that sent two defenders across will get a point if they can win the ball and escape with a pass to their teammates on the other end of the grid.
