About 14 players, area 50–55x30–35 m (7v7 pitch), balls, 2 colours of bibs, 2 goals. 2 teams. Game in the central third. One team always starts with the ball and must keep it for as long as possible and win it back after losing it. The other team must win the ball and counter-attack. Progression – defend the goal.
What the coach should look for
- The ball carrier: take the ball into new space, forwards if possible, otherwise backwards.
- Teammates: quickly make yourselves available forwards and backwards when the team wins the ball.
- Press the ball carrier immediately after losing possession.
