1V1 ATTACKING DRILL
1v1 Attacking Gauntlet Drill focuses on dribbling to beat defenders.
Drill setup- Create a gauntlet with three adjacent grids that are 10x10 yards each.
- Split the team into two groups. One group attackers, the other are defenders.
- Attackers will start at one end line about 7 yards from the grid.
- Start with a defender in each grid and the remaining defenders at the opposite end of the attackers about 7 yards from the grid.
- The coach should be on the end with the attackers with a large supply of soccer balls.
- The coach passes into the first attacker.
- The attacker attempts to dribble through grid 1, grid 2, and then grid 3.
- If the defender wins the ball in either of the grids, or the ball is played out of the area, the attacker returns to the attacker line.
- The defenders all move up one grid closer to the attacker. The defender in grid 1 returns to the defender's line.
- Have the defenders play at 50% if the attackers are struggling. After they are more comfortable, increase the defensive pressure.
- Make sure both teams attack and defend.
