Attacking a zone defence
A
C
D
· Players B tries to get
into and disrupt the opposition zone defence, by pushing the defenders
out, (only 0.5m without pushing against the goalie), and tries to get into
shooting position. · Players A can pass to
either player C or D as both are unmarked. · Pass the ball around
until a player has a shooting opportunity. · Players should move
in, out and around the zone to create an opening. · Always have two
players (A & D) covering back in case possession is lost

C
· If one of the back
players (A) moves towards the goal, then one of the attacking players (B)
should cover back, so that there are still two players (B & C)
covering the back in case possession changes.
A
· Avoid this situation
as everyone in the attacking team is committed to attack and if possession
changes the opposition players (A & B) will get a quick break and
should score.
