Improve defence throughout your entire team, working on channelling, shadowing and intercepting high balls.
Defending shouldn't be the sole responsibility of players inside the defensive third - the instant your team loses possession of the ball it should be all hands on deck as your team works as a unit to regain possession.
What's in the Session?

After your players have practised intercepting the high balls we then play two fun conditioned games - putting what they've learnt in this session into practice!
