About basic play with combinations
The purpose
with these training exercises - which are building upon ordinary basic
play training exercises, - are that the players, besides training passing
possibilities, movement, and acceleration and more, can train the different
combinations, and by this train the players to shift from basic play
into a combination, where a shift in the rhythm and a position shift
between 2 or 3 players may cause a shooting chance.
It is important that the players learn, that a combination must be
fast and performed with precise passings. That means a clear shift in
speed with a break in the rhythm. Then again normal playing rhythm (let
the ball pass through all the players one more time) before the combination
is started again.
The players must also get use to the fact, that the starting player
can be anyone. It must not always be playmaker, who starts. The players,
who is used in the combination must also learn to move at the correct
moment. That is often difficult.
Many of the training exercises are only shown to one side, but they
must be learned in both sides, and in several other exercises the players
shift position. This gives the players a better understanding of the
game.
