In this session filmed exclusively for CV Academy, Brighton Lead Youth Development Phase Coach Dan Wright takes his players through a series of practices that focus on attacking in 2v2 situations.

The session begins with a warm-up, led by strength and conditioning coach Harriet Clark, that prepares the players in some of the key movements to be used in the subsequent practices. Wright then leads the squad through a 1v1 practice in a tight area, before progressing into a 2v2 attacking wave practice and an expanded 2v2 small-sided game.

It’s a great session that gives an excellent insight into the specialist coaching model used at the Brighton Academy. Wright focuses on the in-possession coaching throughout the session, while a second coach, Kylrn Brooks-Lynch, focuses on coaching the players out-of-possession principles. We hope you enjoy it!
