Set Up: Move goals to top of the 18yd, narrow the width of the field by 5 yards on each side 

Rule(s): 

  • Defending team wants to be in a mid-block
  • Attacking team will try score in big goal w/ emphasis of playing the ball behind the backline 

Duration: 3x5min; Rest of 1-2min

Coaching Points/Concepts for defending team: 

  • Look to set traps and invite the pass into midfield 3 
    • If pass is made, be ready to win it back
  • Force BSU into 2 of 3 channels of the field (deny the ability to play the weak side)
  • 7 & 11 can we keep BSU fullbacks in front of us 
  • NNU 9, can we force BSU to one side of the field and be ready to press their CB when they drive 
  • NNU 9, look for moments to back press
  • Back 4, anticipate the long ball, when to drop off vs when to step 
  • Midfield, when ball is played long, we must drop quickly as well to win 2nd balls and keep lines tight
  • If NNU 9 is "eliminated" from play by BSU CB, then one of NNU midfield 3 steps to apply pressu and weak side 7 or 11 tucks in to help mark midfield
