Progression 1
Objective: This defensive drill progresses in intensity while introducing and reinforcing good defensive principles and quick footwork. This drill incorporates social-distancing requirements.
Skill Emphasis:
- Defensive footwork
- Low body position
- Interceptions
- Ball carrying
- Outlet passing
Recommended:Consider sending a bouncy ball or passes with varied speeds into the playing area to challenge your defenders.Modify the drill to turn it into a 1v1 or 2v2 between the defender and the player they passed the outlet to.Depending on your team's conditioning levels (especially after returning-to-play for the first time) give your defenders longer breaks between their repetitions as the active defender — when they're in line, keep them engaged by having them call out directions for their teammates.Drill provided by Kelsi Lykens at the University of New Haven.
