1v1 starts with a GB. Defender needs to close the gap and keep offense from scoring. O needs to keep head up and find their best avenue to score.

Drill to encourage kids to keep spacing on the field using cones as markers. We will work the ball around the perimeter with LOTS of extra balls at each outside cone. If the ball is missed, pick up a new one and keep going. Keep a line at the top to rotate the next 3 into the crease.

This clear is designed with simplicity in mind. This clear is based on clearing the ball opposite the box with Defensive middies as the primary ball carriers. Attack should be in Fast Break L

This is a drill I've used in previous seasons. It's a good ground ball drill.

Shooting drill that simulates the actions of pass-down, pick-down 2-man game. Start with a line with the balls located top-center-right and another line on the right wing. Mirror this setup on the left side. The top line will pass down to the wing, get depth and return to set a screen. Meanwhile, the wing man will ‘drift’ to get into a good dodging location to work from the screen. In the UNDER variation, the dodger works under the pick and finishes with a shot down the alley.

Out of 3-3…and exchange from the low corner…pass up top with a fake flip. Mid continues thru the center for a shot or a wall pass.

This is out of a basic 1-3-2 set or 13. The dodge can come from either alley with the principles being the same on each side. The near side attatckman clears through to the crease and gets out of the dodgers way. The other two attackman rotate into the ball. The top middie follows the dodger, while the crease M pops out the back side.

This is a drill I've done in previous seasons. It's a good uneven drill.

Basically, there are two triangle formations. One between the midfielders (two on top, one on crease) and one between the attack (two at GLE and one at X). These two triangle formations work together in harmony. If one of the two midfielders on the top pass it down to an attackmen, then that midfielder that passed the ball will sprint to crease while yelling the motion word, FISH. When the midfielders hear this motion call, its a fill triangle rotation. The crease mid will sprint out of the crease and go to the top, while the top mid (the one that did not pass the ball) will sprint across the top and fill in where the other mid was at. 

While this is happening, the attack that caught the ball is looking to feed the ball to the mid cutting to crease. If that first look isn't there, then the second look is the mid cutting across the top (the mid that is filling in). If the second look isnt there, then the attack will pass it down to X. The X attack will then pass it to the other attackmen (the attack that did not pass the ball). The attack that has the ball will pass it to the midfielder at the top, as he passes the ball, he will yell the motion word, FISH.

When the attack hear this word, they essentially are doing the same motion as the midfielder triangle. The attack that passes the ball is cutting through the crease. This is the initial first, quick look. If no defender follows and lets the attack run free, then the mid w/ ball can pass and the attack will quick stick shot. If the attack is defended, then the second look is the X attack that is coming around to fill in for a hitch dodge and shot.

If neither look is there, then the offense can start the motion over and have the motion run the same direction or switch the direction of the motion.
