Advent Day 5
A break out rondo I’ve used a few times. Can be used for a range of topics.
8v4, defenders rotate if they clear the ball out the box. 6 passes then the attacking team can play a ball in behind for an attacker to run through and shoot. New ball played in immediately.

Advent Day 4
Another one focusing on the Create Phase, specifically the 10s attacking the half space.
X2 teams of 5 + 2 floaters (10s) who play in the half space and play 2 touch.
Normal game - progressions can include removing/adding touch limit, allowing rotations between channels.

Advent Day 3
A build exercise with a transition. Red team looks to build in a 7v6 to either of the yellow neutrals.
Once this happens the yellows with the blues attack the big goal in a 7v8. If the Reds win the ball back they can attack the 3 small white goals.

Advent Day 2
A bit of a classic which I enjoy using to either introduce basics of defending as a ‘unit’ or to coach more specific details as an individual within a unit.
Boxes are roughly 8x6 steps.
Red team looks to pass the ball between them and find a pass through to the ST’s.

Advent Day 1:
Setting myself a challenge to post an exercise a day till Christmas.
For Day 1, I am showing an activity I used last week for attacking combinations. After the warm up we went straight into this.
Red team passes to ST, once he takes his touch the defenders are live

As mentioned yesterday, A Licence session plan posted below.
A focus on progressing the ball from behind the half way line up to the box.
I was happy with how it went - would there be anything you would have changed? ⚽️

After sharing IP pitch plans yesterday, this is a document we share with players in the YDP for create. Would be good to hear what other coaches share with their players?
A discussion we are having now - is a 3-2-5 shape more effective than 2-3-5? @sundayshare10.bsky.social

I have never really been an active poster on social media, but I have decided that is going to change on BlueSky.
Below I have attached my ‘In Possession’ pitch plans on how I coach my players to play. Would be great to hear opinions/changes ⚽️
