Challenge & defend with gates
© CoachTruly.com- Description
The drill is performed in pairs. Both players have their own gate goal.
The drill starts with passing between the pair. When the coach gives the signal, the player with the ball becomes the attacker and the player without the ball becomes the defender.
The objective is to dribble through the opponent's gate goal. When a tackle occurs, the roles switch. After completion, start over from the beginning.
