Coaching Points
- CB must wrap tight to the Pivot — even a half-meter gap invites a defender in
- Pivot keeps a stable pivot-foot position throughout the wrap action
- LB decoy run must be convincing — sprint full pace to drag the defender wide
- Receive the return pass from the Pivot in shooting position — feet toward goal
- If the wrap lane is congested, abort and reset — forcing it creates turnovers
