Session Topic: Can we maintain possession and switch play to exploit space against our opponents.


How?: Switching the play quickly (Ball Speed, Scanning, Body Shape, Proactive)
When?: BPO>BP (When we have successfully secured possession)

Why?: BP (So we can look to penetrate with 'Shooting' or 'Passing' Actions in the final 3rd)
