Hi Maaria,
Players should focus on:
I hope this was helpful!
Great answer Matt! Here is a nice intercept drill from Marg Foster I found on Sportplan!
Three Way Intercept
Set up:
3 lines are set up in triangle formation, one ball. 3 feeders at the front with a
defensive player behind.
Players learn how to time their movements to intercept the pass.
When coaching, place importance on footwork and players taking their feet with them around the player, not just moving arms around as this makes for lazy play, potential contact and potential footwork mishap.
Common errors:
Players standing next to the receiver, they need to come from behind and take their whole body with them.
Some players may 'push' through the standing player. Introduce defending with the outside arm. Emphasis is on the player to take their feet and
move around the receiver, if they can’t quite make it for a full intercept they are to use their outside arm to tap the ball and chase.
