Games (with press)

Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys...
Parry, U15 boys Hockey Coach

DESCRIPTION

3/4 pitch game of 1s vs 2s.

One team plays the full-court W-Press and the other plays a 3/4 pitch press.

3s play a match in the final quarter. May need to have 4 teams switching when ball is called dead. Or when both teams have had 2 chances in possession. Group teams by ability.

COACHING POINTS

W-Press - always the default. We start playing the full-court W press adjusting the width of the W to mirror the strength of the opposition. We ONLY change from the W-Press if the captain decides.

3/4 Court: midfield and forwards set up in a staggered 3 - 3 formation behind the 23m. They allow the oppo to play in their own quarter and shadow left and right. Staggered to encourage play down the left hand side. When the ball comes into the second quarter, the players collapse onto the player in posession to block their passing lines. Hold the centre - LB/RB front mark.
