2v2 Defending

Grids are 15 yards wide and 25 yards long.

The defenders will pass the ball to the attackers, 2 players from each end will enter the field and play 2v2. The objective is to dribble past the end line of the opposite team. If the ball leaves the grid, the game is done and the next 2 will pass the ball to the opposition.

Coaching Points:

- Ensure there is pressure and cover from the 2 players

- Quickly engage the attacker

- Low to the ground and on your toes when defending 1 on 1
