Set Up:

There are eight players set up inside of the grid, playing 5v3. During the drill, the five attackers play keep away from the defenders in the grid. Each time the ball is passed, the three defenders adjust to the ball, pressuring with the first defender and covering with the other two. When the defenders win the ball, two attackers come into the grid to try and win it back. New defenders rotate in after 2-3 minutes.  

Coaching Points:

1.  Curve your run to the ball and approach at an angle, forcing the play in one direction.

2.  Close down to within 3-5 yards. Take away thru passes down the center.

3.  Communicate which one of you is going to the ball. The first shout sorts it out.

Progressions:

1.  Progress to 6v4.
