Exercise #2

Outside players (red) stay on the outside of the cones and pass to each other (they always have to go through the top player). 

Defenders (blue) are passive and don't attempt to win the ball, pressure only!

- When the ball goes wide, the defenders move to pressure & cover.

- When the ball is with the top player, defenders move centrally to protect the middle

Progression:

- attackers attempt to score in the goal 

- defenders can block / intercept

Key notes:

- def arrive wide as ball arrives - anticipate pass and travel as ball travels

- 1st def to position body is between the ball and the goal

- 2nd def in a position to cover 1st def when ball out wide (inside and slightly deeper)

- nothing through the middle

Exercise #3

Defending 2v2+2

- 2 x end players who play for team in possession

- 2 teams in the middle playing 2v2

- Team in possession attempt to get the ball from one end player to the other

- Team out of possession attempt to use 1v1 and 2v2 defending techniques to win possession

Swap roles every 3 minutes.

Key notes:

- defenders be in a position to see the ball and their marker and prevent passes between them

- def arrive wide as ball arrives (travel as ball travels)

- 1st def to position himself so body is between the ball and the end player

- 2nd def in a position to cover 1st def (inside and slightly deeper) but close enough to pressure next attacker if ball is passed
