Screen 2

Players from line A provide 2 defenders and 1 target player. Players from line B are 3 attackers. Play starts with central player playing ball to any wide player. On movement of ball, both defenders pressure the ball. Wide player has option to touch into space and play between or around the pressuring defenders to target player. If not on - can play back to central player or to other wide player. Goal is to get ball to target as quickly as possible. Target player moves and looks for channels. Key points - scan, open, recocnize position of defenders and choose best option - touch distance and direction, where to play ball. Does player always play safe and pass backwards?

Remember to have players switch roles within lines and have the lines switch roles.
