Why this formation?
1. Has a player in every zone in Defenders, midfielders and strikers
2. Forces our team to play through the team and not direct
3. Wide players make good soccer shapes in diamonds and triangles
with central players
4. Is adaptable to 3 players in every zone
5. Gives good opportunities to switch the field of play
6. Stretches opponents with our width
7. Forces our Goalkeeper to play out of the back increasing technical
development and tactical awareness
8. Gives realistic central midfield options
9. Will allow players to develop multi positional awareness and n
opportunity to develop specific positional techniques
To get the team comfortable in playing from a goal kick
To do this the goalkeeper places the ball in the center of the Goal area (small box)
The central defenders and wide players go wide and central midfielder and striker make the diamond
Note: if the opponents mark up all of our player the GK is encouraged to kick to space or the field players look to
change places

That the goalkeeper knows how to make them self the additional player
Note: To do this the ball must be at the goalkeepers feet either from a back pass or from a save and then the ball is placed
down. The goalkeeper must have the confidence to hold the ball at their feet to create an outlet
Timing and awareness is key. In the older ages this will control the speed of play.
In this picture the GK holds the ball and the wide player pressures. Our wide player then drops back to receive

Shape Objective 2
Establishing Width
Our wide players are key as through their positioning they give us either a passing
option or create room to attack centrally. When we are in possession of the ball the wide
players must be the closest players to the sideline
