Lead-in Practice:

Organisation:

Blues score goals by: passing from end player to end player, passing through the wide gates or completing a diagonal pass across the area.

2 red defenders work together to prevent this.

Ball intercepted or goes dead: restart from an end player as soon as possible.

Rotate the 2 defenders every 2/3 mins

Coaching Points:

1. Two defenders start compact to prevent the straight through ball

2. Ball goes wide: nearest defender moves at speed to block off the pass down the line. Other red drops and narrows slightly to prevent the diagonal pass (maintain compactness).

3. Ball switched: Immediate reaction - roles as above.
