Week 53 Pressing & Counter Pressing

This practice allows players to develop their build up. Play will run as a 7v4 with 4 players located on the outer lines and 3 neutral players, 2 of which are goalkeepers, working centrally.

The team in possession are looking to maintain the ball and accumulate ‘x’ number of passes, whilst the defending team are looking to regain possession. If they defending team regain possession, they should attempt to counter attack and score into either of the 2 goals. The 4 outer players can counter press to stop them from scoring.

If the defending team manage to regain possession and then score, they will switch with the 4 outer players and become the possession team.
