8 PRINCIPLES FOR COACHING THE BACK FOUR

With Mick Lyon

Coach Lyon puts his defensive philosophy on display in this clinic presentation. A major part of building a defensive unit is coaching the back four. Defending is "an art", according to Lyon, and he feels that attitude and intelligence are mainstays. These characteristics can help you adapt when short of athleticism. A main concept for the back four is team shape, which is broken down into eight pieces. Holding the back four indicates that the unit works together as a group. Lyon believes that token pressure can only be used if directional. He is a believer in real pressure, which makes the opponent uncomfortable. The back four must slide, fill the space and work together. Recovery is a crucial element in back four play also. Tackling the ball puts the pressure on the other team. Counter attack is another key to successfully coaching the back four. Lyon says it is important to include the goalkeeper in your game play, also. On an overhead outline, Lyon shows eight elements of holding the back four. Keeping the ball in front allows you to adjust and read. Depth is a concept that is directly related to your teams' goal. The 3 & 1 and 1 & 3 is a concept that must be mastered to play the back four. Lyon explains communication and dropping with a purpose. Moving and sliding as a unit covers for wide holes that are constantly being created. Because getting beat is a part of the game, recovery is an important aspect of this concept. A distinction is made between driving and tackling. Tackling is a calculated search for the ball. A player should always tackle hard in attempts to win the ball. Defenders are taught to counter attack by moving the play to the opposite side of the field. To cement this teaching, he uses actual game footage to fully explain the eight principles. This DVD can be a tool to strengthen your defense, team communication, and gain a greater understanding of how to keep your opponent from scoring goals.

With Dan Donigan

In this DVD he presents transitions and possession. Eight transition areas are covered throughout this presentation, including offensive and defensive transition, activities, purpose and using the goalkeeper. Coach Donigan feels that a transition occurs all over the field, all the time, so players must be aware and ready to react. Other important keys are tactical awareness, support around the ball, number of passes and spacing of players. In a series of transition clips, each element of transition is highlighted. Donigan details many drills with the purpose of simulating game situations, helping players see the big picture and developing habits and instincts. Drills are also explained for increasing awareness of possession. As an added bonus, Donigan also discusses his philosophy on training goalkeepers. He describes how to incorporate goalkeepers into the entire team building process to increase their confidence and to help make your team stronger. This detailed DVD covers one of soccer's most influential topics. Because soccer is a game of transition, your team can excel when changing from offensive to defense and visa versa.

ATTACK VS. DEFENSE THREE-PHASE TRAINING SESSION

With Elmar Bolowich

Coach Bolowich and his assistants present this excellent training session in three phases; phase one is attacking the goal and getting behind the defender for a shot, phase two is the 7 v 5 situation and the third phase is an 11 v 10 situation, including: quality of shots, crosses from the flanks, timed runs into the box and combination play. One-on-one play is key to this training session. The 7 v 5 session looks for quality crosses, passes and hitting the key target areas. Attacks from the center of the field with combination play are also a focus. Offensive keys to the 7 v 5 session are: two attackers up front, hit the target post positions, timing, and quality shots on goal. Defensively - the counter attack, playing out the ball, initiating the attack and visible offside line are important. Benefits of the 7 v 5 training are to create combination plays, serving the ball to targets, practicing quality shots on goal and gaining total field awareness. The 11 v 10 situation focuses on decision-making, being aware of the entire field before passing, and finding the open post in the box before giving up the ball and switching the ball to the opposite side of the field when zones are overloaded are important to solid play in 11 vs. 10. Throughout, Bolowich reinforces good team communication and learning to work effectively as a unit.

BUTCH LAUFFER'S 12 BEST TRAINING GAMES

With Butch Lauffer

Coach Lauffer dedicates this DVD to 12 training games to improve overall team play. These practices are divided into four areas of development: Developing possession play, three player movements, attacking/defending practices and shooting and crossing. Possession play requires one more goal than players involved with each player receiving two touches. The 8 v 8 to targets is a game that helps attacking team to deal with teams that press defensively. Another group of games are three player movements. This game can be played 6 v 6, 7 v 7, 8 v 8 with a floater. This game teaches players to run in advance of the ball. The game of one touch forward-two touch back works on getting across the face of attacking players for the purpose of supporting and the development of penetrating runs and passing. The third phase of games comes from the attacking/defending areas. Working on 3 v 2 and 2 v 2 game situations creates improvement. Another game, the three zone games help improve playing in tight spaces and the timing of runs and forward passing. The final set of games are shooting and crossing. Coach Lauffer illustrates these games with practices footage. These 12 games are detailed such that any soccer coach can incorporate them to help improve team and individual play.

BUTCH LAUFFER'S COUNTER ATTACK SYSTEM

With Butch Lauffer

Counter attacking, the art of modern counter attacking, is a relatively new concept in our country and needs to be taught, practiced and mastered to join the elite teams in the soccer world. Coach Lauffer dedicates this DVD to the modern concepts of counter attacking. Lauffer defines counter attacking as "an attack in response to an opponents attack." This part of the game is not yet appreciated in the United States. Practices are conducted with two goalkeepers in a 20 by 50 yard field. Defenders are coached to pressure or trap the ball in certain areas of the field to gain possession of the ball. This practice is a continuous game creating an attacking mentality for the players. Midfield pressing is diagrammed and discussed with regards to the developing pressure pockets and points. The goal is for defenders to win the ball and move forward at speed. The 9 v 9 (7 v 6) + (2 v 3) game has many excellent features as well. This DVD includes practice footage that will reinforce the white board presentations. Soccer coaches can get 'ahead of the game' by incorporating countering attacking into their teams.

BUTCH LAUFFER'S ZONE PLAY

With Butch Lauffer

Lauffer indicates that zone play is a methodical and logical way to defend in today's game. Three main zone defense priorities are: Defender pressures the ball, defender covers the first defender and other players cover/balance. Zone defending demands clear responsibility between the players and all other lines. The goalkeeper must be active and vertical in his positional play. A whole team concept is needed to successfully play the zone and requires players to think defense and offense at the same time. To work on specific situations, the 6 v 4 game puts players in game-like settings. To build a strong zone, Lauffer examines strategies for attacking the zone as well. There is not a lot of information on breaking down the zone, which makes Coach Lauffer's coaching methods and teaching points invaluable for successfully implementing the zone. Because the zone is a staple in today's game, coaches can use this DVD to their advantage to win more games.

Cossaboon uses 2 v 2, 4 v 4, 5 v 5, and 7 v 7 situations to teach players to move to open space, lose defenders, communicate, have vision and focus, and use soft passes to penetrate through the midfield. Through this program, Coach Cossaboon will help you teach your players to reduce playing "racehorse" soccer, straight up the field, and use different points of attack and angles to pick apart the defense!

ZONE DEFENSE AND FINISHING GAMES

With Mark Francis

Coach Francis demonstrates zone defense for winning soccer play by sharing drills, technique and teaching points. Francis begins with a 2 v 1 warm-up drill. The focus for the defender is to not let the ball get behind them, wait for an opportunity to win the ball, defend the space instead of the player and pressure the ball in your area. The next progression is 3 v 3 zone defense. This drill works on communication between players, coming from the players behind, and making players defend space. The next progression is 6 v 6/11 v 11 play where pressure and drop skills are mandatory. Francis also shares five finishing games that create skill development and variety. Ball over line crossing game stresses pressure and a competitive environment in a 4 v 4 drill. A crossing game with chasers teaches bent runs, driving the service and timing runs in the box. The 1 v 1 breakaway game simulates a zone in the middle of the field. Finishing with neutral players is another excellent 4 v 4 game that relies on quick shots. Francis concludes with the Brazilian drill. This DVD provides an excellent balance between offense and defense.
