    08 Workshop Transition From Defense To Attack

    Alfonso Gonzalez
    This document provides guidance for coaching youth players on improving the transition from defense to attack. It recommends setting up small-sided game situations tailored to players' abilities that allow them to practice winning possession and countering. Drills should start with 1v1 and 1v2 scenarios and progressively increase in complexity by incorporating more players and restricting areas of the field. The goal is to give players repeated opportunities to practice transitioning from winning the ball to attacking in a way that mimics real game situations.

    General considerati ons


    Situations as they occur in the gam e m ostly require a lot of experien ces and abilities which just adults an d h ighly talented older yo uth player s usually are able to perform. So we have to diff erentiate the recalled game sit uations for pr acticin g do wn to the players lev el of perform ance. This m ean s usually, to reduce the num ber of acting player s an d to give m ore space, respectively, as well as som etim es to input particular restrictions or o bligations while m aintaining the structure of the situation itself. Tasks an d tar gets m ust remain game related.

    Dro p out all those players who are not of need in midfield and defence for young players im proving counter attack behaviour. We get the close situation around the ball 1 vs. 1 + 1, a supporting m idfielder far away and 1 vs. 1 in attack (midfield circle). Due to the age and runways we reduce the space and organise an exercise related to this game situation. Two groups are practicing alternately to give the players recovering time after one attack due to the high intensity of such an exercise.
