3:3 defense system - juniors
3 defenders on the 6 mtr line and 3 on the 9 mtr line.
Attackers have to move and run free - defenders try to intercept the ball.
Ideal system to learn how to defend.
All players have a task and they have to stick to this task : intercept and try to get the ball.
Defenders are nicely spread over the court.
Easy to coach (changing players is easy - two by two e.g.)
Easy to change in a less offensive system by calling back defenders 2.
Then you can change it into 5:1 or 3:2:1 system. (see black arrows)
