2v2 +1 Neutral +2 End Players – Opposite Actions

MUST BE AN OPPOSITE ACTION BEFORE BALL GOES TO THE OPPOSITE END.

– Encourage players to flatten out on either side then one player (N in this case) tells them to ‘GET OUT’ and the player’s exchange positions, hopefully moving the defender out of the space.
– After flattening out and playing the pass, can you ‘get out’ and let another player fill your space?
– 360 degree support can be discussed further with the three players in the middle FILLING the KEY POSITIONS of ‘Beside, Behind and In Front’.
– May make note that there can be opposite movements from players on the outside. If a player creates PLATFORM like player ‘P’ in the diagram then the outside player can move opposite so they are not on the same line.
