Dutch Square Movement


Objective:

To always have a supporting player on the left and right side of you. That there is always two options when holding possession. 

Coaching Points:

  • Emphasis the level of commitment it takes to support, but also to get the ball.
  • Providing enough support so that one defender can only block one passing lane.
  • To provide depth and levels to your attack to support defending if possession is lost.

Players who are looking to be successful will:

Collect with their back foot, open up hips to face both options, and check over their shoulder before receiving the ball.
