Exercise Objectives<br />
Organization<br />
<br />
This exercise allows <strong>play</strong>ers <strong>to</strong> practice <strong>build</strong>ing<br />
6v3<br />
<strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>back</strong> in a 7v7 game structure.<br />
<br />
Set up in half mini field divided in 2 halves; defenders, 2 wide <strong>play</strong>ers<br />
<br />
Distances are smaller hence allowing a better<br />
and 1 midfielder against 3 <strong>play</strong>ers defending two wide goals<br />
control of <strong>the</strong> ball.<br />
<br />
Play starts with <strong>the</strong> keeper. Defenders and wide <strong>play</strong>ers must remain<br />
<br />
The principles however are <strong>the</strong> same as <strong>the</strong> 9v9<br />
in <strong>the</strong>ir own half.<br />
game format, but less moving parts.<br />
<br />
Central midfielder can move anywhere.<br />
<br />
It is important <strong>to</strong> encourage <strong>play</strong>ers on <strong>the</strong> idea<br />
that <strong>the</strong> keeper is an extra <strong>play</strong>er <strong>to</strong> be used <strong>to</strong><br />
keep possession<br />
<br />
<br />
For <strong>the</strong> defending team only 2 <strong>play</strong>ers can occupy half field at <strong>the</strong><br />
time.<br />
If defenders win <strong>the</strong> ball <strong>the</strong>y can score<br />
<br />
Progress <strong>to</strong> 6v4<br />
