Screen 1

Half field. 5v5+GK. Balls start with GK, who plays with a back four and #6. Pressing defenders are two 9s plus 11/10/7. (Twin #6s and back three can be thought to form compact block in the defensive half.) Play to three gates in the midfield, if defenders win it back they counter to goal.

Coaching points:

- 9s: bend the run to prevent switch of play back through GK, other 9 drops underneath for central cover

- 7/11: invite outlet to the fullback then press hard, weakside wingback shifts over

- 10: take away central passing lanes

Progressions

- add an extra #6 for team building out from the back

- place target players in the gates, when they receive they immediately join counter attack to goal
