This drill creates opportunities for players to be aggressive in the counter press once possession is lost to keep the opposition in their own defending area.

Coaching Objectives

In this breakout game, players will have the opportunity to implement attacking principles in a counter-attacking capacity. These include whether to transition to score or transition to retain. Players are encouraged think about moving forward and playing forward whenever they win possession.

  • Basic Level: Start with passive defenders in the end zones to allow players to understand the movement and transitions.
  • Intermediate Level: Introduce full-pressure defending in the end zones and encourage quicker transitions.
  • Advanced Level: Add time limits for transitioning the ball from defense to attack to increase pressure and game realism.
