Set-up:
Start with 4 defenders who are locked into 1 square each on a 4x4 grid, defending a goal. Attackers start by attacking in twos. Defenders must stay in their square and defend. If the defenders win the ball they can leave their squares and counter attack the attackers’ goal.
Rotation: After 10 mins swap one of the attacking teams for the defending team, each team should play 10 mins in defence.
Intervention: Drive-by style helping defenders with their positioning and technique. Encourage defenders to win the ball cleanly and start a counter attack. Challenge attackers to think about what they should do if they are tackled.
Progression: If the defenders are doing well and need challenging, progress to 3 or 4 attackers to create attacking overloads
