10 Min Handling Defensive Pressure
  • Attack the attacker - don't run away from pressure
  • Short Passes
  • Dodge and Run as fast as you can, alter speeds until its full speed
  • Communicate on Offense
  • Drill: 6v6 into a 6v7
    • Start with a 6v6, and make sure the defense plays their man tightly, deny the adjacent pass
    • After 45 seconds, the coach releases an extra man to double the ball, or apply more pressure off ball


10 Min clears
  • Should we run a long pole off?
  • Defense work on Banana Cuts, R-Line, Wide Turn Away
    • Banana cut - two Defense low banana cut staying parallel to goalie outside restraining line, facing the goalie
    • R-Line - 3rd defender goes to a top of box, if he's covered, take him to the alley near mid line (away from box), if he's not covered sub for a middie who goes over the line (make sure a middie stays back)
    • Wide Turn Away - If the defender is doubled or in doubt, wide turn away and pass to the other side of the field
  • middies clearing will need to know flag, maverick, turn to the outside, pinch,
    • Flag motion 1-2 seconds straight then move towards the end lines
    • Maverick - middie cuts back to the end line and turn to the outside as its least likely to get doubled
    • Pinch - if the defensive player is running up the side, the middie clears through but staying onside (keeping the way clear)
  • always have 3 middies ready to sub. 1st one subs on for defensemen, and into the offensive half of field, 2nd stays on side, 3rd goes to offensive side
  • Deep - the two middies run deep and the goalie tries to hit them
