excellent soccer skills and
the incredible results that follow!!!

BREAKAWAYS
Overview. A "Breakaway" is a fast break with one or more attackers behind the defenders... only the other team's goalkeeper stays between the offense and the goal.
Cause for Breakaways - the defense shows no depth making the team vulnerable to "through balls"… the defense is "pushed up" to the offensive end of the field.
Sweepers Used to Stop Breakaways - the best way to stop the opposition's breakaway is for the Fullback to kick the ball out of bounds giving the team time to drop back to defend the goal…. A "sagging" defense, multiple layers of defenders easily slows down the opposition's fast break opportunities.

Please show me an Effective Attacking Drill that develops attacking tactics, passing and shooting.

Second Attacker
Overview. Close enough to the First Attacker for a pass. Within a short to medium passing distance from the First Attacker.
Support Skills. To create passing opportunities to maintain the ball's possession and the opportunity to score a goal, use no more than three teammates around the first attacker.
Position. Distance - 3 to 4 yards to either side of the first attacker's defender... maintain passing lanes for the first attacker... distance from the defender varies depending upon the field position (closer when nearer the opponent's goal) and whether the defender is challenging the ball carrier (greater distances are used when the defender refuses to challenge the ball carrier.)

I am in a panic. I start practice soon and will be coaching eight and nine year olds... I'll be relying on your material for my coaching efforts. Thanks!!." - D.L., California.
