3v1 target game
Passing
- Description
- In this 3v1 exercise, the objective is to kick the ball so that it hits another ball placed on top of a cone and knocks it down. One player acts as a defender and tries to block the passing lane to prevent a successful shot. If the defender continuously moves too close to the ball in the middle, an area can be marked around it where the defender is not allowed to enter. If the defender wins the ball, they try to score in a small goal.
- Quality factors
- Movement off the ball: Good positioning and continuous movement to create passing options. Quality of passes: Accurate and well-timed passes into open spaces. Defender positioning: Active blocking of passing lanes.
- Key questions
- How can the defender be drawn away from the passing lane? What options do the attacking players have if the passing route is blocked?
