Obj: The team's two attacking corner routines rehearsed both ways — near-post and penalty-spot priorities with disguised deliveries (2.10's corner law). Field: Final third, goal + GK. Equip: Goal, balls, cones, bibs. Org: Routine A (near-post train: stacked runners split late — front-flick threat + spot arrival) and Routine B (spot overload: decoy near-run drags markers, delivery to the spot's arriving cluster) installed unopposed, then vs. passive, then vs. live defense. Both run from BOTH sides with both-footed takers (G-26's whip). Rest-defense positions drilled within every rep (who's home — F-07 at dead balls; E-27's post-corner counters the cautionary tale). Second-phase reactions live (H-13's seed): every cleared ball is played out, never whistled dead. CP: (1) Routines live on TIMING, not secrecy — late splits beat early sprints; (2) delivery targets a ZONE, runners arrive to it (G-09's law, dead-ball version); (3) the routine card is match protocol: called by number, disguised in setup. Prog: Live defense + GK; routines counter-adjusted (if they zone, B beats A — reading the defense's setup pre-corner, taught U15+). Reg: Walk-throughs; mannequin defense. Mist: P: runners leaving early (the timing IS the routine); C: installing five routines badly instead of two well (5.x's less-is-more, dead-ball edition). Time: 15 min weekly in-season. Out: Two routines executed at match speed; corner xG measurably up (8.7). Var: U15+ expansion toward the four-routine playbook (4.15). Diag: Two panels: A's near-post train with late split; B's decoy drag and spot cluster — delivery zones shaded, rest-defense marked behind both.
