Combination-to-Goal Suites

Finishing & Final Third · U12–U19

Obj: Combinations that end in the net — 1-2s, third-man chains, and up-back-throughs run as finishing suites: the passing curriculum's final third payoff (B-06/B-21/B-31 given goals). Field: Final third, goal + GK. Equip: Goal, balls, cones, mannequins → live defenders. Org: Three suites rotating, pattern-then-live: SUITE 1 the wall-finish (1-2 around a defender at the box's edge, finish first-time — B-06 graduated); SUITE 2 the up-back-through (into the 9, set back to the 8, threaded for the winger/10's run — B-21's chain aimed at goal); SUITE 3 the third-man slide (B-31's Y with the finish attached — A's disguise, C's set, B's arrival finishing). Live phase: 4v3 to goal where suite-pattern goals count triple (recognition of WHICH suite the picture offers is the graded skill). CP: (1) Combinations near the box move FASTER than anywhere (defenders' recovery distances are tiny — one-touch or the window shuts); (2) the finisher of every suite arrives ON the move (B-28's timing with the stakes raised); (3) read the defender's choice: he jumps the wall = through-ball; he sags = strike (G-33's give-go read at the death). Prog: Fully live defense; suites chained (a failed suite 1 flows into suite 3's shape). Reg: Mannequins throughout; walk-through installs. Mist: P: pattern-running past the defender's actual gift; C: drilling suites without the live recognition phase (vocabulary without conversation). Time: 16 min. Out: Three suites fluent and RECOGNIZED live; combination goals appearing Saturdays (tagged in film, 8.5). Var: Position-cast suites (real 9/8/winger cast in their roles — masterclass mode, 10.x). Diag: Three mini-diagrams: wall-finish triangle at the box edge, up-back-through chain with the 9's set, third-man Y arriving at a finish — each with its live-read cue noted.

The 3-point rule: pick your three coaching points before the session and be ready to answer for them (Manual 5.4).
