Circle Defence & Attack 1 v 1

I love using Sportplan. It's been a great help for co-ordinating hockey...
Laura, Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

Defender (D) passes the ball to attacker (A).

Attacker goes 1 on 1 to try to penetrate the circle and get a shot on goal.

The Defenders’ priority is to stop the attacker getting through gate 1, then gate 2, then gate 3.

Work both sides of the circle.

COACHING POINTS

Defender engages as far away from circle edge as possible.

Defender must adopt a low body position and be side on to protect their feet from the ball.
