COACHING POINTS

COACHING POINTS:

- Triggers; if there is pressure on the ball then team can begin to get tight. No pressure on the the ball then team must drop to protect the forward pass (i.e goals)

- Good Possession; Drop & protect against the forward pass

- Mistake by Attackers, backwards pass, bad touch...then team squeezes as pressure applied to the ball
