Defending as a Unit SSG (20 mins)

Setup: As illustrated

  • The ball starts with the goalkeeper who plays a long pass to the 4 attackers on the halfway line.
  • The 4 Defenders need to push up the field as quickly as possible to set a line
  • Once the attackers receive the ball, they can start the attack creating a 4v4 to the big goal
  • If the defenders win the ball, they can score in any of the mini-goals
Key Coaching Points
  • Stay Compact - When defending, players need to stay compact and prevent the opposition from playing forward or shooting
