Transferring in Defence

I really appreciate the Hockey Coaching on Sportplan. The senior girls...

DESCRIPTION

Transerring the ball through defence and using CM.

3 defenders, 1 midfield, 2 attackers

Defenders & CM have to get the ball through either gate in the wide areas.

 

COACHING POINTS

  • Accurate passes with appropriate pace
  • Look to us the CM to collapse the opposition and beat their first line of defence
  • Keep distances equal - don't become too close or far apart as players
  • Don't let an attacker get between you & the ball carrier - get availabe to receive a pass.
  • Dribble at pace
  • 2 or 3 touch passes - sharpe across the pitch.

Progression:

  • Introduce more players & opposition to encourage game play
  • If the opposition win the ball, they can attack the goal and put the defenders under pressure.
