Very basic warm up. Set up three boxes of approximately 15x15 yards (can be smaller dependening on ability) with four players on each corner and one player in the middle. The player in the middle is the interceptor.
Game: The four players on the edge of the area have to try to complete as many passes as possible between them without losing the ball (a good target would be to complete 10 passes in a row). The interceptor is not allowed to tackle, so must intercept as many passes by pressing the other players as much as possible within a short frame of time (recommended 2 minutes). After the time is up, the interceptor switches places with one of the four players, and so on...
If the interceptor intercepts the pass at any point, he wins a point. At the end of the drill once everyone has had a turn as the interceptor, the player who has the most points (intercepts the most passes) wins.
Tactical: The players with the ball should pick their passes carefully; playing a short pass to a player with space is much more likely to be a successful one than playing a risky ball to a player who is close to the interceptor.
Technical: This drill encourages quick passing, quick movement and will ultimately help to improve ball control.
Physical: Players have to move at speed, and in particular the interceptors have to be able to press at a high intensity for a sustained period of time.
