Defend the Zone

ORGANIZATION (Physical Environment / Equipment / Players)

Cones to mark a 20x15 area. 1 ball per attacking player.

COACHING POINTS / KEY CONCEPTS

Attacking player starts with ball to the opposite end of the grid. Defender attempt to win the ball and dribble out of the zone. The players that lose their ball become a defender in the next game. If an attacker dribbles out of bounds, they become a defender. Once everyone has made it to the end of the zone, the game begins again. Defending players do not kick everyones ball out of the grid.

Encourage attackers to keep the ball close. Touch the ball every 1-2 steps and use cut moves to avoid losing the ball. Only increase the number of defenders if attackers are not being challenged. Don't let the players only go after the same person.
