Q. So when should you use the Give and Go?
A. Use the give and go when playing against a strong defence which plays a high line to try and force your team to take pot shots from far out, predominantly a 5:1 or 3:2:1 defence system.
With more experienced players you can progress the skill. If you add in a few fakes or dummy passes it can become an entirely different beast - helping your players to continue their looped runs towards the goal unchallenged and create a golden shooting opportunity!
Use this session with your players today, so your team can learn the movements and the passes so that the give and go can become second nature!
