1v1 Transitional Game Att V Def

Setup

You will require: 2 balls / 2 sets of bibs / 20 cones, Split 6 players into two groups with different color bibs, Create a 15X15 area, Using cones create a small goal on each of the 4 sides of the grid, Teammates should line up in the window across from their own team, One player from one of the two teams starts as a defender

How it works

One attacker and one defender enter, The attacker has to pass the ball to his teammate waiting in the opposite goal, That player then takes on the same defender to get the goal to the player in the opposite goal, If the defender wins the ball there team transition to the attackers live and attempt to do the same thing
