What’s covered in Coaching the Back Four – Zonal Defending

Coaching the Back Four – Zonal Defending is a three part video series featuring a complete training session led by Elmar Bolowich, a coach with an exceptional winning record at two college teams. In the session he reveals the drills, tactics and mindset he uses to create teams that concede few goals and regularly embark on huge tournament runs as a result.

Video 1 – The session begins with a simple 2v2 drill in 10×10 grids where players have to get the ball past a line without shooting or passing it across. This drill helps defenders practise against attackers holding onto possession, and to improve their communication and pressure. During the video, Bolowich outlines the ideal stance for defenders that avoids forcing them to pivot to chase the ball and how attackers can improve their overlapping runs

Video 2 – The next video focuses on pressure, cover and balance, and the principles of step, slide and drop when tracking attackers. Bolowich raises the pressure and challenge with a 3v3 drill. This puts pressure on defenders to make a fast recovery whenever they lose the ball and to maintain their shape when dropping back. Staying balanced and holding the line, rather than dropping deep too quickly, are keys to solid defending highlighted by Bolowich during the session.

Video 3 – The final video elevates the session again to a 6v6 drill in which the principles of step, slide and drop are even more pronounced. The increases in players means defenders have to be mindful of offsides when working with four defenders and two defensive midfielders. Bolowich highlights the importance of not stepping in too early or creating gaps to be exploited. These are just two of the tactics that Bolowich drills into players throughout the session to create a backline that knows how to react as a unit.
