Functional Practice: Pressing

In this practice, Jack (of Zone5Football) coaches a functional practice on one vertical half of a pitch - with a focus of pressing against a named opposition's goal kicks. Jack's key coaching points relate to the positioning and body shapes when pressing, dictating and delaying until the ball can be regained. A big thanks from RSRE to Colney Heath FC for allowing us into their U16s environment to bring you this piece.
