Shift a three-player block

Organisation

Three against three. A starts deep and attacks two end gates. B defends at two depths: one presser and two players diagonally behind.

Execution

A scores with a pass through an end gate. B scores after an interception with a controlled pass to a teammate. On a backward pass B changes presser while the others recover cover. Restart deep on out-of-bounds. Swap attack and defence every minute.

Coaching

• The far defender guards central depth.
• Shift without forming a flat line.
• Call who takes pressure on a return pass.

Easier

Keep A at fixed width positions for the first round.

Harder

A may carry forward; B adjusts pressure and cover.

What to observe

Count central passes conceded and safe follow-up passes after B regains.

Equipment

Sticks, one active ball, spare balls outside the area and cones; mini-goals where drawn. Use a safe indoor floor and suitable boards. Dimensions and duration are adaptable starting proposals.
