Anson Dorrance - German Combinations


This is part of a session conducted by Anson Dorrance at an International Coaching Seminar in February 2008. The session focuses on the German-type combinations and small-sided games that Dorrance uses with his National Championship UNC team. (Courtesy worldclass coaching).

1. Setup – players on the outside Find the play making center midfielder and the center back; play possession, if the white team of three win it 5 times they rotate out; The whole idea is that you look for the play maker in the middle – challenge for the playmaker is to change the point of attack – the players on the outside have a 2-touch restriction
ii. Coaching Points
1. Decision to play 1st or 2nd time
2. Players are a dime a dozen who play the ball square or back – Elite players go forwards
3. Find the tactical seams – middle player
