Five Seconds to Win It Back

FIVE SECONDS TO WIN IT BACKP1P2P3P4P5P6P7G1G2G3G4G5G6G7
Area

40×52m pitch marked with cones on the half field, 2 mini-goals on each end line

But du jeu

Keep the ball as a team and, the moment it is lost, win it back immediately instead of running back.

Règles & consignes

  1. 01

    The greens attack the two mini-goals on one end line, the pinks attack the two mini-goals on the other end line.

  2. 02

    When a team loses the ball, it has 5 seconds to win it back, the coach counts out loud.

  3. 03

    If the 5 seconds pass without a recovery, the whole team drops behind the ball and defends normally until the next loss.

  4. 04

    Set 2: a team must string 4 passes together before it may shoot, so it has to hold the ball under pressure.

  5. 05

    Ball out of play means the opponent restarts with a pass from the spot, and the counting of the 5 seconds starts again on the next loss.

Points de coaching

  • ✓

    DEF: watch whether the nearest player runs straight at the carrier within one second, correct the ones who jog back towards their own goal.

  • ✓

    DEF: ask the two players behind the presser to stand in the passing lanes forward, not next to the ball.

  • ✓

    OFF: on recovery, check the first pass goes forward or wide into free space, ask for the attack to continue instead of restarting backwards.
