This session is designed to introduce your players to the concept of running out of position to support the on-the-ball player.
To develop support running this session only works on getting the passing player to support their own pass, but this is a theme you can continue to develop throughout the season in order to get all your players supporting one another.
What's in the Session?
Skills covered include: Support run to a posting up player, Support running to a leading player and Making lead or support runs following a pass.
