The objective of this training unit is to improve running paths, passing and the decision-making process during the first wave. After a warm-up running exercise, the subsequent short game already includes quick adjustment exercises and long passes. During the ball familiarization phase and the goalkeeper warm-up shooting, the players practice playing long passes before they combine several actions with first wave initiation in a series of shots. The closing small group exercises finally focus on making passing decisions. The training unit consists of the following key exercises: – Warm-up/Stretching (individual exercise: 10 minutes/total time: 10 minutes) – Short game (15/25) – Ball familiarization (10/35) – Goalkeeper warm-up shooting (10/45) – Offense/Series of shots (15/60) – Offense/Small groups (15/75) – Offense/Small groups (15/90) Training unit total time: 90 minutes Difficulty: Medium level (youth teams under 15 years of age and adult teams)
