SportsLab360: Defending from the Front

Written by Cal North Soccer | Mar 1, 2021 7:35:57 PM

This month's theme is on defending from the front. It will be available through the month of March exclusively to Cal North members at no cost.

We are constantly looking for new and valuable content and resources. Our partnership with SportsLab360 has helped us in that effort. Each month, in partnership with SportsLab360, we provide an accessible, practical, organized, and easy to-use program that is focused entirely on tactical development. 

Here's how it works: 
Assign the SportsLab360 modules to your team and players, customize the content to suit your style of play, track the scoring of your players, and even tap into the library of session plans that they offer.

When you think about defending in soccer, you most likely think about defenders, not attacking players. But, it is the front line that is usually the first line of defense, making their job very important!

This module will teach players how to defend from the front, looking at a high press, a low press, and some of the fundamentals that go along with each type. 

As always, the module concludes with a quiz to challenge your Soccer IQ and review what you have learned.


Here are three available modules you can share with teams this month:

7 v 7

 9 v 9 

11 v 11
