Defending in Own Half Phase

This document provides coaching guidance for defending in a team's own half of the field. It outlines that the aims are for the defending team to understand priorities when defending in their own half, including pressing the ball as it crosses midfield and maintaining compactness and balance. The coaching focuses on players communicating, protecting spaces, preventing passes, and regaining possession to transition to attack while maintaining defensive security. The practice can be adapted by varying player numbers from 9v8 to 10v9.
