If you can't play in depth or make a change of orientation,and

as a resource not to lose the ball, the holder must play it backwards diagonally (reorientation and start of the offensive game).

  • To do this, it will make a backward pass to a teammate of the previous line (emergency pass), so that possession of the ball is guaranteed and that the offensive phase can be started again.

 

The team should not be in a hurry to progress/deepen the sub-phase of

Home/Progression. A safe and effective pace of play in the Start sub-phase will allow for a later and more effective Progression/Completion sub-phase.

Considerations

These "priorities in the holder's game" are the decisions that the holder must prioritize in relation to his game with the ball, although at all times he is free to decide the action he sees most convenient in each situation.

The decision between passing or progressing must be "taken" before or during the execution of the receipt of the ball, so that in no case, to make this decision, the player has to stop the ball.

Sometimes playing the ball backwards (emergency game with a subsequent change of orientation of the receiving player) causes more offensive resources than if we progress directly.

In each competition unit in its offensive phase, the ultimate goal is to reach the completion zone with finishing options,but ensuring that during the process the ball will not be lost.

The holder should not be in a hurry for the ball to reach the end zone,but it is preferable to guarantee possession of the ball, which will cause:

  • Increased number of arrivals in that end zone.
  • Longer possession time.
  • Lower defensive risks.
  • Greater psychological wear and tear to the contrary, as a result of "running behind the ball".

Aimed at

The holder when it is not possible for him to progress, deepen or change the orientation of the game

Training Goals
