Description

Purpose of this exercise is to practice the four 3rd Man Triangulation Passing Patterns and apply them to purposeful movement using the zones on the grid.  This is an exercise that will need to be practiced often.  Understanding of the patterns, body shape and good first touch, accurate passing, triangulation, moving the ball through the thirds,  field/zone orientation, communication and reading cues, planning/anticipating future plays are all things that this exercise will provide practice in.

Pep's Positional Grid

Pep Guardiola's 20 zone positional grid.Five vertical channels

Six horizontal channels

This is a variation on the 18 Zone breakdown of the field famous for it's naming of Zone 14.  This has been modified by making the Halfspace and Central channels two horizontal channels deep covering the low part of the middle third and the high part of the defensive/attacking thirds.
