Creating overlapping opportunities for fullbacks

Sportplan is a very helpful resource and I really enjoy the wonderful...
David

DESCRIPTION

This exercise is focussed on creating opportunities for our fullbacks to overlap particularly during counter attack situations where the opposition fullbacks have pushed up.

The rotation sees the following occur:

- Fullback plays the ball into 6

- 6 plays the ball into the feet of the winger

- Winger plays the ball into the feet of the 9 and continues their run towards the back post

- The 9 plays the ball back to the 6 who attempts to feed the ball into space for the fullback to control and cross into the winger who has cotinued their run

 

Rotation:

-  Fullback replaces winger

- Winger replaces 9

- 9 replaces 6

- 6 returns to the end of the line

COACHING POINTS

- Timing of runs from fullback and winger

- Quality balls into feet

- First touch control to take the ball into the direction you want to go

- Weighting of the ball from the 6 into the path of the fullback

- Quality crossing into the box
