Explanation

- Blues need to play through middle zone and get it through to the blues on the other side

- Blues can only play in their sqaure

- Red's are only allowed to intercept from the middle zone too start

- When blue wins the ball they must run the ball out of ether end of the sqaure to score ( reds can press in this moment)

- Blues restart asap once ball has gone out

- Every 2 minutes rotate reds in the middle

Progression

- One red can step out and press into the end sqaures

- Blues on the otherside not involved in the build up can enter the middle sqaure and play to help transfer the ball from oneside to the other

Team Task

Can we adjust our defensive lines in relation to the postion of the ball to close down forward passing lanes and force the oppostion to turn the ball over.

Player Tasks

Can you adjust your postioing in the defensive line as the ball moves

Player Cue

As the ball travels can you re-adjust your possession in the defensive line to make sure you are covering the most dangerous space/player

Can you postion your body away to force the oppostion to the outside of the playing area

As the ball is being circulated to the opponent closest to you can you provide pressure on the ball

Can the 2nd and 3rd defenders in the defensive line provide cover and balance whilst the ball is being pressured

Balance- As the " cover defender " moves into his postion can you postion yourself diaonally behind him to protect spaces or dangerous opponents that he may not be able too.

When the oppostion recirculate possession can we alter our line and snap back into the correct postions

As you see the oppostion about to move possession ( player on ball gets his head up , players opening up ect) begin to anticipate your new postion in the defensive line and move there.
