Blue wash: Defending half · Gold box: Width, depth and first-line support · Gold rings: key roles
Blue plays toward the top goal. The shaded area identifies the phase; supporting roles may sit outside it. All 22 players retain their 4-3-3 positions.
Starting picture · Blue: Northbridge · Sand: opposition · Gold rings: focus players · White dot: ball
A starting picture for the practice, with the focus players highlighted. Both teams keep their 4-3-3 roles; movement and decisions develop through live play.
Organization
11v11 on a full pitch, two goals, both teams in 4-3-3 and normal offside. Start as 5 receives from 1.
Practice task
Play freely toward goal. 3, 6 and 1 continually adjust their supporting distances as the nearest forwards close 5.
What to observe
5 can connect a firm, controllable pass without every support player moving toward the ball.
Progression
Vary the speed and starting distance of the first presser between restarts.
