Progression: Add in DefenceAdd in a defender, stage 1 defence (staying man on); 70% effort, building to 100% This should be positional/court relevant with target space/line to work to. Attacking playerâs objective is to shift the defending player wide enough to allow them to take on the front cut If the short pass is given, defence will take up 3-foot stance The feeder does not have to give the short pass if attacking player is in position to/does take on the ball side long drive Attacker should look to achieve 6 successful passes on target; play is continuous so if you donât hit target initially, work again to shift the defender high and wide and go again (and again!) Repeat after feedback allowing defence more freedom in intensity and decision-making (but still focussed on S1 player defence); feeder can offer lateral reset option. Progression: Add in Additional Court Positions Add in additional relevant attacker and defender further down the court.Defence at 70%, building to 100% The leading attacker now has option to find o width then depth, or o depth then cutback The reading attacker then takes the other lead Time Allowing: From transitional play, so players may be close to or even behind the feeder.
Attacker may find they need to find more width than they realise with a defender in play! Turning fully with ball on the short pass, is important to engage the defender to a 3-foot mark As practise develops, attacker reacting to the defender stance and may need to explore back cut, rolls and cutbacks Persistent, determined and patient if/when multiple attempts needed to hit target Definite movement for reader to be able to make their move promptly too Angled body, speed of movement and eye contact as signals to feeder Encourage players to explore verbal and non-verbal communication
