Jörg Madinger - Gaining positional advantage using passing feints (TU 10)
The key topics of this training unit are passing feints and how to combine them with a breakthrough or a return pass to a teammate. Following a warm-up running exercise, the players already learn how to pass the ball cleverly in a short game; this will be further developed in the ball familiarization phase. In the goalkeeper warm-up shooting exercise, the players practice passing feints in combination with a 1-on-1 breakthrough; in the subsequent series of shots, they combine the passing feint with a return pass to their teammate. Both variants will be implemented twice in the subsequent 1-on-1, 3-on-2, and 4-on-4 games. <br/> The training unit consists of the following key exercises: – Warm-up/Stretching (individual exercise: 10 minutes/total time: 10 minutes) – Short game (10/20) – Ball familiarization (15/35) – Goalkeeper warm-up shooting (10/45) – Offense/Series of shots (10/55) – Offense/Individual (10/65) – Offense/Small groups (15/80) – Closing game (10/90) Training unit total time: 90 min. <br/> Training unit requirements: Low level (all youth and adult teams)
