Possession Game 6v6 with Target Players

Two teams of six play possession; one point per ten consecutive passes. Two neutral target players on the perimeter who can always be played to, giving the team in possession an overload. Switch neutrals every five minutes.

• Use the neutral to relieve pressure — don't force it through a crowded zone
• Scan before you receive; know your next action before the ball arrives
• Win it back immediately — no switching off after losing possession

• Remove one neutral to tighten the overload
• Add a transition trigger: team that wins the ball gets a point for reaching the end line within five passes
