How can your team defend the circle efficiently and limit the number of goals conceded? Players need to be able to communicate effectively to force the shooters to shoot from the outer edge of the circle. Pressure needs to be applied on the outside edge of the circle too in order to force an error and limit the options for the shooters.
What's in the session?
We have drills focused on defensive units working effectively together to stop the opposition from scoring a goal. Also, limiting the space of the shooters within the circle forcing them to shoot from further away from the post.
Each practice has progressions to stretch and challenge your more able players and conditions to support your developing players.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
