Adult Technical Session — 75 Minutes

5-player combination run at full pace. Two groups simultaneously if squad size allows. Three cycles per group (5 rotations each). The pattern: position 1 to 2, 2 to 4, 3 runs, 4 plays 3, 3 plays 5. Call every pass receiver before playing. By the end of 15 minutes, the sequence should be running without coach prompting.

Continuous 3v2 waves. 20 minutes, full intensity. First team to 12 goals wins — losers do 10 press-ups. The competitive element is essential with adult squads. Without stakes, intensity drops after 8 minutes. With stakes, it holds for the full 20.

GK + 4 vs 3 pressing forwards. 5v3 overload — the build team should always find a free player if the shape is right. 8 sequences. One coaching point: 'who is free? The free player changes with every pass.' That's the whole drill.

Full 11v11. 5-pass sequence = 1pt, gate penetration = 3pts, goal = 1pt. The pattern play warm-up should make the passing sequences feel natural. The build-out drill should make the transition from defensive third to midfield feel organised. The game is where it shows — or doesn't.
