The June edition of the WORLD CLASS COACHING magazine that is part of the Member Drills Database will have a session from Elmar Bolowich, Head Men's Coach at Creighton University. He presented it during the 2013 Nebraska WORLD CLASS COACHING International Seminar. The focus is on attacking patterns to create goal scoring opportunities.
One pattern that Bolowich presents is Up - Back - Though.
Up - Back - Through
The midfielder plays to the forward who is checking back. The ball is passed back to the midfielder. The wide players make forward runs and ball is played through to one of them. The run should be inside or outside depending on the position of the defenders.
The next ball is played to the opposite wide player.
