A great drill to work on beating double teams and controlling the ball vs pressure
Set Up
Put 6v6 players on the field, and you can trigger the drill from any spot. Start with 1 player being double teamed, and coach rolls a ball into that player. They will scoop it and immdiately need to run away from the 2 players chasing them. The offense needs to have front and back side support so teammates on the field must move to get open. Play until the offense can get a shot off, or there is a turnover, and then repeat from another area on the field
Coaching Points & Principles
- Play vs pressure – we want to be able to run away to space and maintain ball control
- Off Ball Offense – Moving to space to help teammates being pressured
- Defense – Work on trying to get the offense to make bad passes – don’t give away bad checks that lead to open lanes.
Progressions
- For younger players, start with smaller numbers like 3v3 or 4v4
