OUR GAME MODEL WILL FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING PRIMARY STRUCTURES OF PLAY BUT WE WILL AIM TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP PLAYERS ABILITIES TO PLAY IN MULTIPLE FORMATIONS AND POSITIONS -

• 7v7 - 2 defenders, 3 midfielders, 1 forward

• 9v9 - 2 central defenders, 2 wing backs, 3 center midfielders, 1 forward

• 11v11 - 4 defenders, 3 center midfielders, 2 wingers, 1 forward

IN ADDITION OUR TEAMS WILL FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING TACTICAL IDEAS -

• Setting a connected press

• Switching the play in possession

• Being comfortable playing short passes while under pressure

• Ensuring we have runners beyond the ball

THESE 4 IDEAS WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED AND DEVELOPED WITHIN TRAININGS AND GAMES ACROSS THE SEASON.

THIS LONG TERM APPROACH SHOULD HELP OUR PLAYERS BECOME BETTER CANDIDATES FOR PLATFORM SOCCER
