Corner to Corner Possession Game
small-sided games04:322,467 views

This possession game sees two teams of 4 compete for possession, with the help of one neutral player. Each team has 2 corner players (diagonally opposite each other), and the internal 2 look to move the ball between their 2 corner players. It gives a real focus to your use of possession as you work the ball back & forth.

PLEASE NOTE:

Any references to this video being ‘free’ relate to when we launched the website in 2018, when all our videos were free of charge. We hoped to cover our costs through site advertising but unfortunately, we were unable to gain the necessary support for our ethical approach from either sport related companies, the media or clubs in the professional game. To continue providing and funding quality coaching videos on our platform, we have now switched to a subscription-based model. For less than £1 per week, you will not only be helping us to maintain, grow and enrich our insightful coaching resource, you will also have full access to hundreds of videos, from both grassroots and elite levels. Thanks for your support!
