Two Touch Under Pressure
Two Touch Under Pressure
My Notes
Set Up:
Two players are stationed in each corner of the big grid. In addition, one player is stationed in each corner of the small central zone. There are two balls moving clockwise during the drill, and the balls should start in corners diagonally opposite each other. To begin the drill, two players will run from the central zone towards the players with the ball. As the 'defenders' come in, the players will touch the ball to the side and then pass to the next corner. After passing, players will run into the central zone to take their turn as the defender. So, each time a player receives a pass, he makes a two touch pass to the next corner and then runs into the center to pressure the player opposite him. Players may leave the central zone as soon as a pass is struck to the player they are pressuring. After ten minutes, the drill changes direction.
