Coaching Points
- GK must throw or roll immediately on the save — do not hesitate or dribble
- A1 and A2 must be moving before the GK releases the ball, not after
- A3 receives on the move and looks to distribute in one motion
- The GK advancing as an extra option forces defenders to commit an extra player
- Wings must call out 'open' loudly so A3 knows where to release
