How do you help players learn how to intercept the ball?

Would love to hear some great session ideas!

  • Hi Tim,

    Same did like Lee did, I recently progress to a 2v1 session. The player can use the defensive principles to cut the passing line and give more aggressive defense while the attacker back to them. 
    Although my players are so young. I told them use   the position wisely, and both use the legs and shoulders.

    I also coach a U13 team. We always play defense as a group, deny, press, compact the space, and find the route to create counterattack when win the ball back. I don’t like to train tackle, like Pep. Hahaha~
