Instructions
- 1CB drives with the ball from center toward the 9m line to draw defenders
- 2LB cuts diagonally toward the left side of the 9m zone with momentum
- 3CB dishes a sharp pass to LB at the peak of the drive
- 4LB receives in stride and continues toward goal
- 5LB finishes with a jump shot targeting the far top corner
Coaching Points
- CB: commit fully to the drive — half-speed draws no one
- Time the dish pass before the defense closes the gap, not after
- LB: start your cut the moment the CB takes his first step
- Arrive at the 9m line with your hips already facing goal
- Keep your eyes up through the drive — make the GK commit early
Common Mistakes
- CB drives too slowly, allowing the defense to recover and close the passing lane
- LB starts the cut too late, arriving at the 9m line after the window has closed
- Dish pass is telegraphed by looking directly at the receiver before releasing
- LB catches the ball flat-footed instead of arriving with shooting momentum
- CB commits to the pass too early before drawing enough defensive attention
