Local/amateur football training is extremely GENERAL where everyone does the same skill work and the same running work regardless of positional requirements.
I'll give this a pass "for now" because that's how it's always been done but from now on it's not good enough and coaches need to do better.
With time being maybe the biggest factor in deciding what to do and how to do it, coaches feel forced into this general training dilemma but what a lack of time does it make the importance of specificity within your training even more critical.
Harder to organise and carry over sure but still as critical to your on-field success.
This drill and accompanying program is a forwards running pattern drill involving balls work.
The running patterns are based off full ground defensive press that most teams are doing in a scenario of an intercept mark in their forward 50 which I chose specifically as it will involve running efforts over the longest distance so if you can cover this drill, smaller leading requirements will be easier.
In the boredom of lockdown I analysed a bunch of my team's senior games from last year to look for any trends in the stats I took and have used them to form the program part of this which you can read about below.
Players Required: 5/group
Balls Required: 2/group
Space Required: Half a ground or so
Drill Level: Easy
Here it is...
