Swoosh Defense younger players can learn the dishes Back Four Zone Defense

Swoosh Defense younger players can lea the dishes Back Four Zone Defense Recently I was asked,? Coach Hardy, why are teams of youth soccer coaching   to play a flat four areas of defense? The perception is that a sweeper /   System is a plug? safe? equipment for protection of children. First, any defense   Have their strengths and weaknesses. A coach knows the   deficiencies and encourage their team to break down. All notices   Furthermore, the plan is the favorite of four of the most mode equipment. A   youth football coach should emphasize the development of players within the   framework for the proper performance of soccer.When to a mode apartment four provide excellent   defensive pressure, coverage and balance. Young players should be   developed to play at your highest potential, and almost all high-level   teams play a flat four or three systems. Coaching a flat four defense   players for future success in football. Even a team as young U11   team is able to successfully play a flat four defense. A computer may stop responding   ? leave? short-term objectives, while the leaing system, but   long term, will have the ability to move confidently in a mode defensive   System.IO team is able to successfully play a flat four after a pair of training   Sessions and a handful of games. I use the pre-season practices, touaments   and a time of games as a team to lea the role of player and team form   a flat area of four blind players defense.To help you understand how the defense team I   They call him? Swoosh? defense. Since the change to four defenders on the left and right   throughout the landscape, the shape of the defense unit is similar to that of Nike? Swoosh?   Logo. If it comes from the shape the players can say? Swoosh? and immediately   The players know where they fall. How to feel at ease the players   With the system will know of another? Swoosh?. Here are four   ideas to be aware of when training Swoosh defense.1. Swoosh DefenseThe four defensive avoid the other teams have   ? break opportunity? to the end of the ground and the defender   far-side central defender and cover shifts diagonally behind the pressure   Close to the defenders. Sounds complicated, but? S really very simple. The   advocates of change in the position of the diagonal ball.With this position? Swoosh? defense is to deny the ball   penetration, dangerous attacking players are marked and coverage   Defenders? scan? every ball is played through. If the ball is in   for the other side of the field, the defense of the four players take tus? Swoosh?   Accordingly. I found that young players can easily remember? Swoosh!   Over? Cover pressure balance?. It 'important for players to remember that the cover diagonally   This is why the computer is no longer? We do not need a sweeper. The most common mistake defense   It is for the team to stay completely? apartment?. This is particularly common in   line with the team when the ball has been the retention of possession in   Opponent? s in the middle of the field. Which explains why the teams are leaing   Swoosh defense often abandon their goals for the half-field defenders breakaways.If Flatfoot at the center of the field, then every ball played behind the   defense will result in a break with no race to stop a goal, but the   Goalkeeper.2. Mark a Swoosh ZoneIn man, in addition to the form, the four defenders must become   aware of the attacking player in his area of responsibility. Young players   often focus all their attention on the ball. This is called a bad habit? Bola   Sharing. Young players often watch the ball until the ball comes near them   And only then you try to do so. But the ball is only part of the work   Defense. Swoosh defense requires players be in a good defense   position, while marking the opponent? objective and lateral side of the ball?. When the defenders? Ball Clock ", passed to the cloaked opponents   Positions. The basic rule is for defenders to score the most dangerous player in   their area of residence and a ball from side to side and meta-them.The break away against the Swoosh defense usually happens when a   defender is caught flat "and not? not react to the opposition in your area   Until when? s too late. If you are waiting until after the defenders are playing cards with interest   towards the brand in your area there is often a race to the finish line.   90% of a good defense is the position away from the ball. (Note: Another reason to use the "Swoosh" term is due to the fact that young players   often remain flat if the defense is called a "level four"). Ball watching   is quite normal for young players, however, is a lawyer   very important and that the player must 'be careful and mature enough to   Not seeing the ball. Lea to properly mark is a responsibility that comes with   Leaing.3 commitment. Line of moderation and firmness TransitionThe In principle a good defense is to create? Compact. " I   promote the defense to create compact when the transition to the offense or   when the opponent passes the ball back. We do this because (a)   compact space that the other team is working to create the pressure   E (b), we can capture their sides. Do not encourage a sophisticated off --   U14 sides in the trap, but moving the field of creating compact capture   Forward unknown outside sides.If slow in our own transition to the offense (for example, after the   only allowed the ball to the defensive third) and defenders of our stay only deep   in our environment, we are giving the team a lot of space to move the ball   Towards our goal. The general rule is my coach, if the ball up the field 5   cantieri defense then move 5 meters - 20 meters up to the field means that   Move 20 meters to the ground. This is true until it crossed midfield. A half point   the back of four steps to a few meters into the opponents half field.If our defense is our mid-field then there is less   pressure and with less pressure than the other team to go play in our environment.   I think it'sa better idea to try to defend the midline of your space goal.The key is to compress all   Lawyers must go forward together. If only one defender then becomes the   Another team to exploit. The line of defenders moving the sector is called   Our? line of moderation?. Our goal is to have our? Line of moderation? no more than   35 meters ahead of our time, our defenders line.Again, a second prize in the compact space during the transition period is   the other team is often out of the sides on, because they are caught   around after the ball was cleared.4. Outside the referees and shares common conce when playing the Swoosh defense is that the arbitrators   off0sides can make mistakes with the call and the other team will have easy   Break-away. As for the referees missing offside calls in addition to? S   The nature of the game. The key is to control the controller. As coaches, we have   Can I? not control the referee? s decisions, but we can control the computer? s capacity   He has a good positioning and brand. Moreover, if a team plays good defense   objectives and results, and then not be able to allow the arbitrator to   determine the outcome of game.In short, if you compact coach defenders in transition, it   Our? Swoosh? form and mark your opponent's side of the goal and the ball --   hand, then I am sure that the floor on four areas of defense can be successful   even with my young teams.Now current U11 team is comfortable with   Swoosh defense has now been reduced to the role of aggressors were   defense and its ability to move forward to participate in the Pro attack.Coach Hardy Kalish is a personal trainer and director of operations   Boulder County Force Soccer Club in Colorado.
