Inside the Practice
Defensive organization at set plays needs to be thought out in detail. It is important that players should be detailed to specific tasks and each set play rehearsed.
When players know what tasks they must perform, they concentrate upon doing it. If every player concentrates 100% in their task, the danger from set plays is immediately reduced considerably.
Prior to the game, assign each player a specific role to play when defending against free kicks. The following is a sample of the organizational set up for your defensive wall.
Field Organization
