TRANSITION DEFENSE CHECKLIST

This week I'll post some checklist templates you can use to ensure you're covering everything you need while training so your 100% ready for round 1 in around 10 weeks time.

You can add/subtract to this template but just ensure that everyone has a role at all times, it is clear what it is, and that they are performing those roles when they should be.

Also note that A/D123 can be players of any position on the ground and that these roles depend on the ball location so it's essentially the 3 closest players to the ball at any given time.

There are 4 game moments that I'll cover this week and each will be broken into 6 micro-moments.

What strategies/tactics you use around the micro moment is entirely up to you.

Today we'll start with transition defense which is the point in the game where we have lost possession and the opposition are now trying to work the ball forward to create scoring opportunities - or once Gardner takes this intercept mark.
