Pressing the Build-Up

Press the build-up as a unit. Curve the runs to cut the lane back to the keeper, force the ball square, jump the next pass, and read the rushed ball to win it high.

Setup & instructions

The away team builds from the keeper and two split centre-backs. The home front three press with curved runs that cut the lane back, forcing the ball square, then jump the next pass to intercept it high. Curve the run to take one option away, press together, and time the jump. Rotate the pressing three and the back three.

Setup time: 1 min

Coaching focus

FROM SESSION PLAN

Coaching points

  • Curve the run to cut the lane back to the keeper
  • Press one option, take the other away with your angle
  • Force the ball square, then jump the next pass
  • Third presser reads the rushed ball and steps in
  • Press together: one out of sync breaks the trap

Common mistakes

  • Straight run that leaves the lane back open
  • Pressing alone, out of sync with the others
  • Not forcing the ball square before jumping
  • Late on the jump, letting the pass go clean

Progressions & regressions

VARIATIONS

Progressions

  • Add a full-back so they have another out-ball
  • Finish on goal after winning it high
  • Set a trigger: press only on the keeper's roll

Regressions

  • Back three play at a set pace to groove the angles
  • Walk the curved runs and the lanes first
  • Add a fourth presser for a bigger overload
