Player A passes in to Player B who has a passive defender on their back. Player B attempts to turn and pass to player D.
Once activity is complete player D becomes C and Player A becomes B.
Where is the pressure coming from?
1 If the preesure is coming primarily from, for example, the left shoulder the player can turn right on the inside of the foot with the ball away from pressure.
2 Pressure directly from behind. Checking on to the pass and playing the ball back in to the SPACE {not back to the passer} it came from in order to give the player room to turn.
3 Side on pressure. Receiving and turning with the outside of the foot. This can be for target players only for now.
Body positioning is important, shielding the ball...
If the move is unsuccessful allow the player to pass back to the original passer and go wide to receive again for fluency of the activity
