4 ''Attackers'' are to play in either end with 2 ''defenders'' in central zone.

3 Blocks of 2 minutes.

Defenders to rotated every 3 minutes

The Practice

The attackers must aim to play through, around or over defenders to the other 'attacking zone'. Defenders must stop play through using blocks & interceptions.

Block 1 - Free Play (Coach concurrently - look at body shape, angle of run when pressing etc)

Block 2 - Defenders are now to be locked into their side of the central zone. (Split vertically). Terminal Feedback during break to include pressing triggers & cover lines.... use a tactics board to show ho avoid split passes while still allowing for protection agaisnt a switch of play. - This should be reinforced throughout using the coaching proccess.

Block 3 - Make it a compentition. 1 Point for each time its played through, team with the most points loses.

Challenges/Conditions/Targets

In final block, can we avoid being split. Can also add double points for a split pass.

Key Coaching points (on the fly)

- Press as ball is played.

- Body shape, show outside.

- Break passing lines

- Communication
