1v2 Activation

Red starts on one yellow marker, green starts one the market a little farther back. Red plays to the center Red player who trys to turn and score on the North small goal.Green steps to deny red from turning, the other green next up in group steps up to support behind.  They then play 1v2, if Green win the ball they score on south small goal.

 

Progression: Serving red player joins in for 2v2. Highest green player to start does not step and we just create a low block infront of the small. First yellow marker is line of confrontation, once red hits that marker green press.

4 Zones

4 Red in two quarters

6 small goals (you can replace them with a large goal on each end if you have access to them and you have 2 goalies)

Red looks to pass into the next group of 4 and score on the 3 goals

You are locked to your zone

 

Green must stay in there own zone and defend either the small goals or the zones

 

To start focus on a low block, no press. Defending green as shown above drop off force them to play a ball into the middle player checking. Keep back turned, dont let them face forward.

 

Progression: Press 1 into the final third to win the ball after you lose it.Press 2 into the final third to win the ball after you lose it.

- Shift side to side to close gaps

- Get a shape with higher pressure, lower pressure, squeezing

Normal 7v7 scrimmage

 

Line of confrontation is set. Defending group (red in image) lets green move the ball as much as they want in there defensive third. If green trys to squeeze pass into the middle, red looks to step and win the ball. If they win the ball can we play a forward pass right away, if not we possess.

 

Wingers dont cheat out wide. As the ball travels side to side shift.

Line of Confrontation

Defending in a 4-2-3-1

 

We keep dropping to the line of confrontation, and no deeper then the restraint line. Once they hit this line, we start pressing. Goal is to take away space behind and get compact.
