Short passes to the foot!!

 Hoping after this explanation of how we’ll be standing up in the field and clear knowledge of everyone duties, individual and collective.

Every number is a position,  every player has a function individual and collective.

On the drawing it’s marked ten rectangle spaces with a number. 

It’s the number of each position on the field you’ll be confortable according to your skills and aptitude. 

Every position is important and the one playing that position its responsibility is protecting that area, not excuses!!

If the ball lands on your marked area (# ) you have to control the ball, if nobody else came quick enough to help you, make a pause protecting the ball. 

If a player from the other team attack you, you’ll use your skills to dribble, and right away start a combination with your teammates, the classic play of “touching and go” .

The “touch and go” I had explained to you a few times!! “Short pass to the foot “

If the action started from your goalie, the defenders would move the ball up the field, and then the attackers will position open to receive the short pass, always (everyone) facing the contrary’s  box!!!  Not passing the ball to someone behind, always forward!! 

When you pass the ball behind, you’re giving time to the other team to recoup and make it harder for you to surprise the opponent .

I keep insisting with the short passes, because in the only two practices we did, the players came back to the same routine, long passes and most were intercepted 

Short passes to the foot!!

I’m trying again!!


 After being retired for a few years, but seeing the game isn’t progressing and thanks to a club that is giving me the opportunity to demonstrate how the game can be played without all the negative situations where the brute force would prevail.
And I firmly believe that the old “beautiful game “ can be saved, 
And no will be need the players have to wear head  protection 

Thank you for the opportunity, and I hope I can be understood.

And the same odyssey, when I say “short to the foot” they look at me like I’m kidding around!!. Nobody understand then the longer you pass the ball, the easier is to get intercepted!!. 

A short pass  to dribble someone and keep going with the action (play?)

The one that just received (before he/her had looked to see if any players are nearby) the ball,

 instantly after controlling, pass the ball to the same player or someone that’s in better position. 

And now we have at least three people involved in one play, can be started by his/her small box (we can call “exit “) and again someone would accompany the action and waiting open to receive the ball. 

The ball should start being pushed to the “flanks “ ( field side ?) and all the five forwards are alert to receive the ball and prepare for the attacking!! 

Same operation, with the advantage of all the defenders that brought the ball this far are running behind escorting, just in case one of the ball handlers loose it, they are ready to recuperate the ball, and start again the same procedure!!

To recuperate the ball!!    (Delivery)

I’ll divide the field in 10 sections.  Every section should or be covered by a player.

When the other team push the ball in the air, eventually will land in some place.

That’s someone section!!.  That player has to attack that ball, instantly next section’s players should respond to help. One player is trying to get the ball, the other players should be very near to recuperate that ball, without fouling (because you give the ball away!!!  )  

Drowning the other team’s player that is in possession of the ball, would evict a long ball to our box, that would create a chance of goal.

On this play, we need the player of this particular section to get in top of the person in possession of the ball to pretend to try to get the ball away, but indirectly is neglecting to kick , control or send a long ball to the box, creating dangerous situations!!!
And indirectly he/she is delivering the ball to the other two players are helping!!
This is a delivery!!!
And those players involved in this recuperation will start the attacking!!
