The Session

Dan Stubberfield, U13-U14 Lead Youth Development Phase Coach at Blackburn Rovers FC’s Academy, joins the Coach’s Pass with a Counter Attacking Conditioned Game.

Set up as 4v4 outfield players with GKs (5v5). Limited restrictions in place and focusing more on reinforcing previous learning objectives. One main game condition is to defend deep and try to win the ball back in the defensive half, to then try and counter attack and create attacking overloads. If the ball is won in the attacking half, a penalty is awarded to the opposition.  Give it a try!
