DESCRIPTION

The defender (green 1) attempts to intercept the ball as it is passed between 3 static players.

It's important that the three attacking players are not standing too far away from each other.

Focus on the defender.

COACHING POINTS

Rotate the defending player regularly and get your defenders to think about their distance from players and the ball.

Encourage defenders to stand with a wide, low stance (ask them why they think this is?) and anticipate the direction of pass.

OFTEN USED WITH...

Complete the square:

Working in a square in groups of 3 (with one corner left empty).

Player 2 sprints to the spare corner as player 1 starts to play the pass.

Upon receiving the ball blue 2 turns to throw the ball to the now empty corner which blue 3 sprints towards, ready to receive the pass.

Passing

Interception - group activity:

Red 2 has the ball and red 1 starts in the opposite corner

Blue 1 runs forward and Red 2 passes a diagonal pass to Blue 1

Red 1 moves on a diagonal to intercept the pass

Following the interception red 1 feeds a straight pass onto Blue 2

Red 2 then runs straight to receive a diagonal pass from Blue 2 and Blue 1 moves across to intercept this pass.

Interception

Jumping Intercept 2:

Player 1 has the ball. The middle player takes two steps forward to receive a high ball from player 1. He feeds the ball back to player 1 and then moves to the line as player 1 passes to player 2. The middle player moves back to intercept a pass from player 2 to player 1.

Interception

Jumping Intercept:

2 balls. The middle player faces player 1 and jumps to receive a high pass. The middle player then turns and receives another high pass from player 2.
