Pitch split in half with 1 game on either side. The Attackers on the 25 have to pass the ball to their teammates on the halfway line and vice versa. Defenders have to (zonal) defend the space - setup as (Belgium) Triangles - and intercept the ball. Attackers only score points if they manage to pass a) through the middle or b) via one of their in pitch teammates. Defenders intercept / win the ball and break towards the goal of those attckers which have lost the ball (4v3)
Variation 1: start with 0 infield attacker to create larger overload
Variation 2: attackers on opposite side work back to create time pressure on overload break
- Defenders setup as zonal triangles
- protect the danger (middle) zone
- 3/4 defenders collapse on in field player if he receives ball and try and dispossess
- overload break from zonal defending
- break fast (when additional defenders work back)
