Overview
- Who it’s for: U15 and up, teams that already defend with intent
- Field size: 60m × 40m
- Players: 14 (7 per team)
- Gear you’ll need: bibs, cones, balls
Objectives
- Sharpen when to press high and the decisions that come with it
- Make quick ball-winning inside the pressing zone a habit
- Tighten up your defensive organization and talk
- Get players ready to strike fast the moment they win it back
Setup
Split the field into two pressing zones, left and right. Win the ball inside a zone and it’s worth double, so players learn to pick their moments instead of pressing all game long.
1）The attacking team knocks it around the whole field and looks to score
2）The defending team gets after it inside the pressing zone and works to win the ball
3）Win it in the pressing zone and go straight to goal — that score counts as two
4）Win it outside the zone and it counts as one
5）Play 10–15 minutes; most goals wins
