Soccer objectives: Tactics, Passing, Shooting
Review:
Good
small sided game that teaches small group tactics.
Description
Setup: A 30 yard long soccer
field with two 5-yard goals at each end. There is really no need to mark a
width boundary but if you want to make it 20-25 yards.
Procedure: Regular soccer rules apply except
for the following:
1. The team on defence must always have one player in goal and the
goalkeeper is not allowed to come off the line. Therefore, if a team loses
possession a designated player must immediately retreat to the goal.
2. When the defending team wins possession they must pass back to the
goalkeeper before attacking.
3. Goals are scored by shooting the football through the goal below the
goalkeeper's shoulders.
This scrimmage teaches just about everything about soccer just by playing
- spacing, runs, pressure, transition, etc...
Tips: Have extra balls available to expedite play. Encourage
possession of the ball and quick low shots. Spread the attack and use the
extra man advantage wisely. Alternate the designated goalkeeper after each
goal. Play with uneven teams (5v4 etc). |
