When my team is on the attack, I have my Fullbacks open up near the touch lines. When we have worked the ball to our attacking third of the field, my defenders take a diamond shape with everyone across the half-way line except the Sweeper.The Fullbacks are now less open.
It's worked reasonably well. Does anyone have a better idea? I'm working with 12-13 year old boys with little experience (2 seasons). |
