Distance: to the goal 16 meters
Size of squares: 3 by 3.
Assignment:
The defenders try to make it impossible for the attackers to score by shielding the pass lines.
Again, the defender, who has the attacker in front of him, presses with the ball and the rest squeezes in.
The attackers try to get the ball into the 16 to finish.

The attackers try to get the ball into the 16 to finish.
Rules of play:
- The defenders are not allowed in the attackers' box!!!
- The attackers are allowed into the defenders' box to receive the stabbing ball.
- Once the ball is in the 16, the attackers may score. The defenders may also defend there!!!
- Goalkeeper is free in the 16 to intervene.
- Goal attempt over. Then the attackers become defenders and the defenders get the ball and then join behind as new attackers.
If the attackers cannot get into the 16, you can make it easier for them by making the boxes 1 meter wider.
Distances: pawns 2 meters apart.
T= TRAINER.
CV= central defender.
Blue is defense.
Red is offense.
T= TRAINER.
CV= central defender.
Blue is defense.
Red is offense.
Explanation:
Box 1
- Trainer plays ball in to A, the closest man in this case, the CV, step forward to put pressure on player with ball.
- We see a gap created where there is space for the 2 attackers to run in. See the arrows from B&C.
Box 2
- Here we see the solution to cover this running line.
- The moment the defender steps in on the player with the ball, the other players step 1 meter to the middle to close the gap. In this way, no play can be made between them.
- The defender facing the attacker who gets the ball steps forward. The rest must slide inside.
Explanation to players:
- You explain that red are the attackers and blue are the defenders.
- You start in the starting lineup and play attacker A.
- You ask the players; what should the defense do now? Correct answer: opposing defender puts pressure on the man with the ball. Make sure the rest stay put.
- You ask the players; what is created now? Correct answer: space/ running line for the attackers to dive in. Demonstrate this by running one of the attackers into this gap.
- You now ask the players; how can they avoid this? Correct answer: all step in slightly. In this case exactly between the pawns.
Exercise:
- Ball at trainer is always back to beginning lineup.
- Initial exercise is passive, trainer plays to 1 attacker, the defenders take their steps, ball back to trainer.
- Then then play other attacker. Do about 5 minutes until defenders do their job.
- If it goes well quickly, you can make it harder just by increasing the ball pace.
- One step further is to allow the attackers to pass the ball among themselves and not just to the trainer.
- Then switch the attackers and defenders and do the same thing again. Both for about 10 minutes.
- Ball always starts to the left of the goal.
- Player 1 passes to player 4.
- Then player 1 and 2 start defending on the attacking players 3 and 4.
- Then players in the opposite line join up.
