Phases of Play (Attacking Phases of Play) & (Defending Phases of Play) are more realistic practices designed to simulate a specific sections of play within a real match. Here we train units and whole team understanding of the principles of play and tactical understanding. Usually this form of football training takes place over 2/3rds of a full size football pitch and focuses on a specific aspect of play (attacking down the flanks, counter-attacking, etc). The team being worked with can be overloaded (e.g. 9vs8, 8vs7) and conditions placed on the other team to further create a good learning environment. Various start positions can also be employed to create the game scenario desired.
