Cover Defense

Set up two gates at the entrance to the attacking area. This drill can be done as 1v1s or can extend to 2v1s etc. Defender (X) passes the ball to the attacker (O). The attacker then tries to work the ball through either gate and can finish with a shot at goal

• Decision making under pressure
• Defender is trying to tackle the ball cleanly (two hands on the stick)
• Ability to finish on a shot at goal
