When your team are without the ball you want them to be constantly closing down your opposition, squeezing the space and applying pressure on every single pass! Working hard in this way will help force errors and create opportunities for your players to make the interception.
To give your players plenty of defensive practice, helping them to react to cues around them and reduce scrabbling for the ball, this session aims to develop a quicker pick up to cut down on loose balls and give your players the skills and confidence to go and win the ball back after a loss of possession.
Teach your players how, where and when to make the interception, reacting to visual cues and timing their movement to perfection!
