  • The player to the right (A2)  should then drive into the middle to recieve a pass.
  • They then pass to the next player along (A3) and follow the ball to defend it. 
  • A1 drives into the centre to recieve that pass (A Red takes their spot)

COACHING POINTS

  • It is important to be confident in setting up quickly at correct distance.
  • Arms up high, covering as much space as possible or covering ball.
