In this video Coach Matt Carrol discusses the key concepts to consider when planning and designing a pressing session.
Coach Carrol stresses that before you start planning that you should begin with the end in mind and he suggests three questions you should ask yourself before you begin.
Where will you press
-Decide where your line of attack will be
What will be the intensity of the press
-Decide how many players will be involved
When will you re-group
-Decide at what point you will call off the press
In the video Coach Carroll offers drills that will assist you in building your session.
He designs his practice by building up in the following sequence:
- Individual technique on the ball
- Pressure and Cover
- Balance
- Transition
- Putting it all together
