CLOSE OUT EXERCISES - EXERCISE 8

Drill
1290 views ·
DEVELOPMENT:

Defender 1 starts the exercise when they touch the ball from attacker 1's hands and simultaneously shout “ball”. At that moment, attacker 1 will pass the ball to the coach, who will then pass it to attacker 2, who will have previously worked to receive at a 45-degree angle. During this process, defender 1 will slap hands with defender 2 and become “Last”. Defender 2 cannot go to defend attacker 2 until defender 1 slaps their hand. The goal is for defender 2 to be able to properly execute the close-out on attacker 2 at the right timing.

VARIATIONS:
- If the timing of the exercise is not correct, we can force attacker 2 to make a change before they can attack or delay the pass from the coach to attacker 2.
