9 v 9 Animation of Team Development using One Word Commands

Just a one-word signal can organize a defense, so everyone on the team knows what to do and reacts together as a unit. ​ Also midfield players close by can react off the call too as can strikers.​ These One-word calls ensure everyone will know quickly and effectively what they should do as a unit and as a team.​ Hence the back players (and the keeper) can organize their movement as a unit (and therefore influence those in front of them) from Five VERY simple one-word commands. ​ The momentum is triggered from the back and runs forward through the team to the strikers.​ We must have a very vocal and confident leader at the back organizing this and making the decisions.​

This is a very simple way to show how the team movement works. ​ The main theme is movement OFF and often AWAY from the ball.​ Players position OFF the ball based on: The best spaces, the opponent's positions, their own teammates positions, the position of the ball.​ These are ALL EXAMPLES of what “might / could” happen. ​ Players can interchange positions as we develop the play.​ We offer great dynamics and fluidity to the players to allow them to express themselves on the field.​

With this we can show the discipline also involved when we lose the ball and we recover back or press high.​ Teams will develop their style of play within these frameworks, it will never be as picture perfect as this due to the nature of the game, it is more just a guiding framework.​ How we do it per team it can be determined by the level of play.​
