Positional Rondo in Formation PDF
POSITIONAL RONDOS IN FORMATION
RONDO is generally used to help teach players good habits and movements while in POSSESSION.
Players set-up in specific FORMATION with aspects to age level. Players in FORMATION must stay on their marker while PASSING the ball around trying to keep away from DEFENDER press.
DEFENDERSare free to move. Players in POSSESSION move the ball creating overloads, i.e., 2v1’s - 4v2’s.
Progressions:
- Change FORMATIONS.
- Gradually add more DEFENDERS.
- Add multiple balls to raise player awareness.

how to counteract the tight marking and how to win the ball
back.” - Johan Cruyff
