Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): CM 1 - Consolidation Match 1

CM1 - Consolidation Match 1

The Consolidation Matches enable the coaches to focus on the training objectives that the club have been working on over the previous months

Areas of Focus

• Playing in Thirds
• Switching Play
• Pressing from the Front
  
• Be calm on the ball and control the Tempo - When to play quick and when to be patient
• Move the ball quickly
  
• Create 2 v 1s and 1 v 2s

The focus is also on Structure and Shape when 'In Possession' and when 'Out of Possession'.

Out of Possession (Without the Ball)

Narrow and Tight - The whole shape slides left, right, forwards and backwards depending on the location of the ball

In Possession (With the Ball)

Open Wide and Long formation. Players time their runs into space to receive the ball. Don't fill a space too early as defenders will follow.
The games are coached and will be stopped to highlight learning points.

WE ARE NOT JUST PLAYING MATCHES!!
