Pressing as a team:
How we play:
The team in possession are trying to transfer the ball from one half of the pitch to the other through the middle player.
Reds:
They must make a minimum of 2 passes before they can transfer
If they make 6 passes, then they must transfer down the line and don’t get a point
Blues
The defending team would get a point in this case as they have forced the team wide
Coaching considerations
Blues: When to press
Cover and balance - why-when-where-how?
Pressure on the ball- why-when-where-how?
Reds:
Support- angle/distance
Movement-timing/speed
Before/when/after - in possession
