High Forward Delays (Oppo Defenders)

January 14, 2025

A) Position ourselves high and from behind, ensuring the opposition defenders stay in front.

* Delay defenders by quickly turning and burning to create fast, goal-side play options out the back.

* Practice synergy between disposers and receivers for seamless execution.

* Focus on delivering long forward entry kicks to initiate foot races.

* Organize personnel in structured scenarios to maintain alignment.

* Incorporate players with leg speed to exploit goal-side opportunities and convert efficiently.

B) Using same process but keeping the Oppo from scenario A)

*  Keep Forwards Up the Ground - Delay out the back Tick Leads and Angle Kicks Changes to become dangerous.

* Delay dangerous long goal side options/long overlap kicks.

DRILLS:

Create a 6v6 - Having Forwards play up high

End Points to push off  - Use this for Forward Entry variations & momentum swings.

Run & Carry

Change from Attacking Offensive plan to Delay plan for Oppo not able to create scenario of Fast Goal Side Overlap Entries.
