Depth Game Related Practice: 2-1-2-1 formation
Set Up: 3 zones
Emphasis on coaching bed down points to the red team
Instructions: Players must start in zones as shown
If ball is passed into the next zone, attacking players from the previous zone can enter the new zone to create overload and pressure the defence
If possession lost then players retreats back to their original zone.
Coaching Points:
Highlight and explain the bed down coaching points
Focus on the two main defenders
Push out
Closest defender to the ball presses the attacker and tries to force pass to where 2nd defender is
Do not dive in and wait for right time to tackle
Communicate between 2 defenders eg if attacker passes ball then defenders change roles and closest Defender must close ball down.
