Jörg Madinger - Opening playing variants against various defense systems

Course:

- starts with two balls. initially passes one of the balls to (A).

- Afterwards, dribbles the second ball while running to the inner side, towards the right side of the poles (B).

- “pushes” the ball through to at the 6-meter line (C), picks up the ball (D), and shoots at the right side of the goal as instructed (hands, top, bottom) (E).

- Immediately after the pass, runs a curve to the left (F), and receives the ball from , into his running path (G).

- shoots at the left side of the goal, as instructed (H).

- After the pass from to , starts the next round by passing the ball to . moves to the 6-meter line as the pivot (J).

- After the shot, lines up for the pivot position (K), lines up for the feeder/receiver position (L), becomes the attacking player with two balls (M).

The players should concentrate and fulfill their tasks in such a way that the goalkeeper receives a quick series of two shots, but is able to get in a proper position to save them.

Also do the course on the other side after a few rounds.

Setting:

- Two players play defense.

(Figure 1)

Course:

- initially passes the ball to (A), into his broad piston movement path (B).

- feints a stem shot and then dynamically moves to the center (C) (if necessary, he may dribble the ball with the hand that is further away from the defense line, with the left hand in the example).

- At the same time, places a screen on the inner side, next to (D), to obstruct the way for to the center.

- eventually shoots at the goal from the back position (E).

(Figure 2)

- After the shot, starts the piston movement on the right (F) and passes the ball to , into his broad piston movement path (G).

- feints a stem shot and then dynamically moves to the center (H) (if necessary, he may dribble the ball with the hand that is further away from the defense line).

- With the stem shot, moves and places a screen on the inner side, next to (J).

- After moving to the center, passes the ball to the pivot (K); catches the ball and shoots from the pivot position (L).

- Afterwards, the players start the next round, with playing on the pivot position.

The pivot should keep screening for as long as possible and leave the screening position (in order to catch the ball) as late as possible. Make sure the pivot maintains a proper screening posture.
