Week 1
About this cycle
This cycle focuses on the ability to press together to recover high on the field. The work focuses on coordinated press, the immediate reaction to loss, and the desire to prevent the opponent's build-up play. The sessions emphasize pressure around the ball carrier, recovery in the attacking zone, and quick forward run after recovery. The objective is to establish a collective pressing reflex to quickly regain the ball and create danger near the opponent's goal.
