SESSION: Making the step from 7v7 to 11v11 football

Moving from one format of the game to another can be a challenge for both players and coaches alike.

Here, Ian Bateman, FA youth coach educator, provides a variety of practical solutions to deal with the transition between the 7v7, 9v9 and 11v11 formats of the game.

 

Key objectives

  • How to apply formations, tactics and strategies in 7v7, 9v9 and 11v11 football.

  • Applying the attacking principles of play:

    - creating space using width and length
    - exploiting space using individual/combination play.


  • Applying the defensive principles of play, e.g. working as individuals and units to remain compact and prevent the opposition playing through, round or over to create chances.

  • How to engage individuals and units as part of a team practice.
