This is a good passing and moving exercise for rapid fire passing, in tight spaces. It is something we are weak at in Australia , although improving under the FFA NC. Germany were much better at this than us when we played them a few weeks ago.

In the Warm Up, or Technique part of a training session, in the first phase of a four phase training session, even onto the second phase of Conditioning Games, this is a pretty useful exercise.

The players Alf has used are finding it difficult to achieve the objectives.

The outside of the foot can be used too.

If one then does this exercise reversing the clockwise direction, it is a pretty useful exercise to develop passing and receiving on both sides of the body.

*All players are busy. It progresses to active resistance.

*There are a lot of touches.

*Timing of receiving the pass is important.

*There is no waiting around, wasting time.

*It is good cardio vascular fitness exercise, with game related content.

This is about the best demonstration I can find for rondos, or piggy in the middle on he internet in English.:roll:

However, 6v2 is useless. It doesn't replicate match scenarios,where players are trying to pass and move in triangles and diamonds.

Many of those reading this I've sent FFA Positioning games to, with particular focus on the rondos;

3v1

4v2

5v2 or 3

the PDF diagrams are very explicit as to where players should stand. Players need to stay out of corners when in possession of the ball.

In the 3v1, players in possession should assume a triangle at all times, keeping gout of the corners.

In the 4v2 the 4 players in possession should assume a diamond at all times, keeping out of the corners of the grid.

In the 5 v2 or 3 the 5 should be a diamond with a dot.


That is:


......................................P


P.................................P..................................P


....................................P


P denotes player in possession inside the grid.

This is Bayern Mucich doing a rondo. Their skills are amazing, but the players off the ball are doing little work, like they have to in a 3v1, 4v2, 5v3 in bigger grids.

If anyone reading this wants the FFA PDF documents , if you PM and provide me your email address, I can send you FFA training ground material, which after looking all over the internet in English, is outstanding.

I've sent FFA stuff via email to so many members of 442, I cannot remember who anymore.

If anyone has doubts about the efficacy of this stuff, I've been PMed by a few coaches who've said it has helped their players immeasurably.

One also has his son in one of the HAL Academies too. Basically, they are doing the same stuff there.

i somewhat disagree witht he highlighted point. While the idea of the diamond follows the curriculum, players should make themselves availble for a pass at all times. In the case of the rondo shape you have illustrated, the shape of the possesion team should be relevant to the position of the defensive players. Ill try to illustrate this whereby the defenders are represented as D and the ball is B:

......................................P


P.................................P..................................P
....................................D..................................
..................D..................................D

....................................BP

In this illustration the possesion player on the left side should in fact drop towards the corner to provide a passing option to the player with the ball, while the player at the top of the diamond should also move the the left to provide a direct longer option. The central player may choose to move to the right taking the defender with them and opening up the direct route for the longer pass or should the defender not follow them, open themselves up for a short central pass to play either wide player.

As ive said to you many times before the curriculum only provides a platform it isnt situationally sensitive








For sure.

The general shape diamond with a dot is only a guide. It cannot be kept exact at all times.

The players in Ball Possession, need to open an effective passing lane, diagonal if they can , to provide support for the player on the ball before s/he receives it.

No FFA coach would edict this as dogma .
