Phase Coach Three Central Backs to Operate as a Defending Unit

Organisation

Balls by the target, goal and winger.

Bibs = 3-5- Target v 2-4-2

Need to put full backs for both sides because we need right and left delivery from full backs.

Cones should be just behind the centre circle and divided into three target area with a server in the middle one.

Rules and conditions

  • Look to overload down the sides
  • Defenders hit the target man when you win possession

 

Objectives

  • Dealing with crosses
  • Dealing with channel balls.
  • Preventing crosses.
  • Dealing with central attacks
  • Work on crosses, then preventing them coming in and then free play

Key Points

  • Start position. Recovery (where), set (how), depth.
  • Man mark or zonal defend. In wide areas mark channel side to force them inside and to prevent crosses.
  • Assess flight.
  • Challenge- how, height, distance and width.
  • Second balls- can they spin back in expect the worse
  • Compactness and counter attack.
  • Everyone concentrate we don't want to leave anyone in.

Through midfield
