Creating Space

• I can move away from defenders to get free.
• I can make myself available to the player with the ball.
• I can pass to a teammate in space.

1. Groups of four pass one ball; after passing, move to a new space.
2. Add a second ball.

Freeze-frame demonstration with one group: show the difference between a crowded attack and a spread attack. Use 'wide and long' language.

1. Four attackers around a box, one defender in the middle.
2. Attackers move along their side of the box to create passing angles.

1. Three attackers versus two defenders; attackers try to score in a cone goal.
2. Encourage the spare player to stay wide.

1. 4v4 with two 'channels' on the sides where defenders cannot enter.
2. Teams score double if the goal follows a pass from a channel.
3. Remove channels in the final minutes.
