Hi Jamila. Here's a drill that can help shorter defenders block balls:
Defensive Square Drill
- Description: This drill is set to help defenders prevent attackers from receiving the ball. It involves positioning and quick reaction to intercept passes within a square formed by cones.
- Coaching Points: The defender should think tactically and may not want to go for every ball. It's about using their body to maintain optimal positioning.
- URL: 1 Defensive Square Drill
This should help defenders develop their skills in intercepting passes regardless of their height. Let me know if you need more details!
