Clear versus ride (live)

Setup

Full field. Coach shoots or rolls a ball to the goalie. The defense clears against your attack and two midfielders riding. Score a point for every successful clear and every turnover forced.

Coaching points

• Riders: first man pressures, others take away the short passes
• Clear: the open man is often the one moving away from the ball
• Count the seconds out loud on the bench
• Reset fast and run it again
