Hi Hayden,
To get better at the "Overload WA Hold" drill, focus on the following key coaching points:
- Staggered Positioning: Ensure that the WA and GA are in a staggered position. This will help in timing their movements so they don't cross the line and offer for the ball simultaneously.
- Receiving on the Circle Edge: The WA should aim to receive the ball on the circle edge. This positioning prevents a 3ft marker from setting up and makes passing into the circle easier.
- Timing the GS Movement: The GS should avoid driving out too early to prevent being marked. They should hold their position until the WA has received the ball and is ready to pass into the circle.
For a detailed breakdown and visual aid, you can refer to the drill in the knowledge base: 1 Overload Variation.
Keep practicing these points to improve the effectiveness of the drill. Good luck!
Best, Cam
