“Discover the systems, formation changes and tactics you will need to organize your team into a total team zonal defending unit”
These five videos show University of Nebraska Head Coach, John Walker conducting a training session where he shares practices and drills that you can take to the field to use with your own team. These drills are all defending orientated showing functional exercises for the back four and the entire team…forwards are critical to defending too.
It doesn’t matter how good your team is, or how capable they are of scoring goals, if you are poorly organized when you don’t have the ball. If you are not organized defensively and you keep giving goals up, it not only will make it difficult to be successful but it destroys the confidence of your players.
