The defender (green 1) attempts to intercept the ball as it is passed between 3 static players.
It's important that the three attacking players are not standing too far away from each other.
Focus on the defender.
Rotate the defending player regularly and get your defenders to think about their distance from players and the ball.
Encourage defenders to stand with a wide, low stance (ask them why they think this is?) and anticipate the direction of pass.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.

A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
