Lesson 7:
10v10 SMALL SIDED GAME (PART 3)
The primary objective of this practice is to reinforce and apply the principles of possession when the ball is played wide, simulating real-game scenarios. The teams are set up in a 10v10 formation, with both adopting a 1-4-2-3 shape.
OBJECTIVES
REALISM
The focus of the session is to encourage the team in possession to transfer their possession
principles effectively when the ball is played wide. This ensures that players practice applying their skills in a realistic and dynamic setting.
AREA SIZE
The coach has the flexibility to adjust the pitch size while ensuring it still allows for ample space
to play in wide areas. The layout should facilitate the development of attacking play down the flanks.
CONDITIONS
The coach may introduce specific conditions to suit the learning objectives, such as awarding a
bonus goal when the final pass originates from a wide area. These conditions motivate players to focus on effective play in the wide zones.
CHALLENGES
If the teams encounter difficulties in achieving success in wide areas, the coach can reintroduce
wide channels or place limitations on the defending team. This adjustment provides additional opportunities for players to practice and develop their skills in attacking from the flanks.
CREATIVITY
Players should be motivated to showcase their creativity in wide, attacking areas of the pitch.
Encouraging freedom and inventiveness allows players to explore different solutions and develop their individual playing styles.
Through this session, players will gain valuable experience in transitioning possession effectively in wide areas, which is a crucial aspect of modern football. The dynamic 10v10 setup ensures that players experience realistic game scenarios, while the coach's adaptability allows for targeted challenges and improvements based on the team's progress. The emphasis on creativity empowers players to express themselves and become more confident and skilful in attacking from the flanks.
