Individual / Unit / Team Defending (Part 3)

Very good interactive coaching drills.

DESCRIPTION

STRUCTURE THE DEFENCE

Area: 40m x 60m


7v7 game where each team is looking to score in the opposition goals. Normal rules apply if ball goes out of play. Both teams are locked 3v3 in their half of the pitch. All restarts with the Red team.


  1. If the Blues win the ball in the attacking half and score, then it is worth double.
  2. Rotate positions so the players who were in the attacking half will change to the defensive half.
  3. Players to have a direct opponent. If their player scores, then an individual forfeit.

COACHING POINTS

  • High press to win the ball closer to the opposition goals.
  • Understanding and appreciation for other roles in the team and how the defensive effort anywhere on the pitch is important.
  • Win individual challenges whilst also providing cover and support to help other players.
