15 mins
Topic: Build from the back - transition (15 minutes)
Organization:
3 Team moving box rondo
- Split players up into 3 teams of 4 - pinnies on
- Create grid - 20' x 10' x 20'
- 4 players in each box
- 2 defensive players press & intercept - 2 players wide defend the next box
- 4 v 2 in each box - looking to switch play by playing through to the other box
- if play is successfully switched the wide defenders go to the next box to press & the other defenders replace them
- if defenders win the ball they become attackers - all 4 must join them quickly in the box they won the ball
* suggestion would be to play the ball to the opposite box so they can get organized
- team that lost possession become defenders & play 4 v 2
- if ball goes out - coaches discretion if teams switch
- wide players need cannot intercept when they're wide
Key Factors & Progressions:
- Transition from attacking to defending
- Don't force passes - keep possession
- Shape in possession
- Support = angle & distance
- Switch - play through if the opportunity is there
- Decision making
- Weight of pass
- Communication
- Scan before receiving
