Method:

The first player starts with the ball and is pressed by a player on the opposite mannequin. The player with the ball passes to the 

player to thier right and moves to the left. Repeat so that the ball is moving to the right, the passer moves to the left and each player receiving is pressed.

Coaching Points:

  • When the ball is played into the player make sure the defender is sprinting out to close the space. It is important that the defender slows down when approaching the player with the ball.
  • Players should always be ready and aware of when the opposition player is receiving the ball so they can press. Triggers will be when the player who is passing the ball opens their body to make the pass, and when the player who is passing the ball puts their head down to make the pass.
  • As the ball is played into the opposition player, it is important that the defender movers as the ball travels and is already pressing. Do not wait until the opposition have secured possession before pressing.
