Objective
To train players to scan before receiving, open their body to play forward, and escape pressure using quick combinations or dribble exits in the defensive third.
Coaching points
• Scan Before Receiving: Emphasise early head movement to see the opposite cone or pressure. • Body Shape: Open up to receive on the back foot and face forward immediately. • First Touch Direction: Touch should guide the next action, inside for drive, back foot for switch. • Timing of Movement: Bounce and receive with tempo to mimic game pressure.
