Setup · we attack up the page
Big goal. Two mini goals. Three gates.
Keeper (1) in the big goal. Servers 2 and 4 on the goal line left of the goal, 5 and 3 on the right, each pair with a pile of balls. Two mini goals at halfway, one each side. Three cones make three gates. Attackers line up behind them: 9 and 6 left, 10 and 7 middle, 11 and 8 right.

How a rep runs
Serve. Race. Three on two.
A server plays the ball out to the front line. That pair (2 and 4, or 5 and 3) steps in to defend. 9, 10 and 11 go through the gates together and attack the big goal 3v2. Shoot inside 8 seconds. Then 6, 7 and 8 step up. Next rep comes from the other side.

“Go! Three on two!”
Ball carrier
Drive at a defender.
Run straight at one defender with the ball. Make her pick you. When she steps, pass to the free girl. If she doesn't step, keep going and shoot.
“Make her choose.”
The two without the ball
Wide and forward.
Stay wide so the two defenders can't guard you both. Run forward, not sideways. Be ready for the rebound. One touch to finish if you can.
“Get wide. Get forward.”
Speed
Finish before they set.
This is the Klopp idea. The best time to score is right after we win the ball, before the other team gets back. Fast feet, few passes. Shot on target, then follow it.
0:25 · add the counter
Lose it? Win it back.
If the keeper or a defender wins it, the defenders counter into either mini goal at halfway. The three attackers press right away. Closest one goes at the ball, the other two cut off the passes. Six seconds to win it back. That's gegenpressing.

“Six seconds! Win it back!”
Defenders (2, 4, 5, 3)
Delay. Then go.
You are outnumbered. Don't dive in. Stay between the ball and the goal, slow them down, make them pass. Win it, then look up for a mini goal fast.
“Slow her down.”

Points.
Attackers: 1 point a goal, 2 if scored under 5 seconds. Defenders: 1 point for a mini goal. Rotate servers onto attack every few minutes so everyone attacks and defends.
“Fast is worth double.”
