Transitions drills for 5v5

Play a tiny full match: combine to score in the opposition goal and defend your own, with a keeper in each goal.

Play a full small-sided match: build to score in the opposition goal while defending your own, with keepers in both goals.

Compete in a realistic small-sided game: keep the ball to progress, win it back quickly when you lose it, and punish the transition by attacking the end zone the opponent has just left open.

Compete in a 3v3 with fast transitions. Keep the ball with support and depth, react the instant it is lost, and break at once into the space the opponent has vacated to attack the zone.

React even faster on the small court. Win it and counter in a heartbeat; lose it and recover instantly. Short touches, sole control, quick finish.

React to the turnover. When you win it, break at once and attack the open goal; when you lose it, sprint to recover and deny the counter.
