Topic 1 Overload Defence 5 on 4 or 4 on 3
Description:
This drill makes the players work more, because of one less defender while trying to stop the offense.
Tips:
Emphasis is given on communication. You should keep one less defender to stop the offence. Practice rotations after the ball is out.
Instructions:
- Keep 4 offensive players around the perimeter and 3 defenders in the lane.
- Ball goes to offenders and the defensive players have to match up as fast as possible.
- Offenders should try scoring
- The same defensive player can not guard two passes in a row.
- Try more variations e.g. 5 on 4, 3 on 2.
