Overload Attack | Break Defenses Down with Wide Combinations

Overload Attack | Break Defenses Down with Wide Combinations

Overview

  • Built for one central attacker and two wide attackers out on the flanks
  • Run your attacking reps while dialing the number of defenders up or down
  • Demands quick decisions and support the moment your team wins the ball

Objectives

  • Use your numbers advantage to move the defense and pry open gaps
  • Get your wide attackers supporting at the right moment, every time
  • When the central player is on the ball, have them keep their head up and read the picture
  • Read the game fast so your players flip from attack to defense without missing a beat

Setup

Three attackers — one in the middle, one on each flank — go head-to-head with the defenders, firing off quick passes and hunting to win the ball back over and over.

1)To start, the three attackers (one central, two wide) kick things off with the ball

2)The wide attackers stretch out to the flanks and get ready to support the central player

3)The second the defense wins the ball, players switch attack and defense roles right away

4)Run the same flow again and again to sharpen decision speed and support

5)Go 3–5 minutes per group
