Man-to-Man Defence (Corners)

Every attacker gets a shadow — track them in and beat them to the ball.

Each marker picks up a specific attacker and stays goalside, with post guards and an edge marker covering the short routine and the second ball.

Coaching points

• Mark goalside and ball-side so you see runner and delivery.
• Communicate and hand off cleanly when attackers cross or screen.
• Leave one marker on the edge of the box for the cut-back.
