Blue wash: Defending penalty area · Gold box: Marking, goal protection and second ball · 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
Full pitch, 11v11 including goalkeepers; both teams keep 4-3-3 roles. Start from an opponent right corner with live runners and varied deliveries into the near or central goal area.
Practice task
Goalkeeper 1 communicates the claim decision; centre-backs 4 and 5 judge who can attack the flight while the other covers. Full-backs 2 and 3 track runners beyond the challenge; continue play after every touch.
What to observe
On four of six deliveries, a defender or goalkeeper reaches the first contest with balance and supporting cover, preventing a free first attempt on goal.
Progression
The taker mixes driven and lofted deliveries without announcing the target; defenders must decide from the flight rather than a preset sequence.
