Outletting vs zone marking - a workshop by Robert Noall
by The Hockey Site
Description
Included in our coach membership :) In this workshop, Noall delves into essential skills such as spatial awareness, decision-making, and communication, which are crucial for overcoming zonal defenses. He emphasizes the importance of prescanning—continuously evaluating surroundings before receiving the ball—to enhance players' effectiveness in transitioning play. The session includes analysis of real-game video examples, illustrating how strategic positioning and quick decisions can create numerical advantages against zone marking.
To instill these skills, Noall proposes specific training techniques, including dynamic warm-up exercises that require prescanning, game situational drills to practice high ball plays, and feedback mechanisms to reinforce decision-making processes. By combining prescanning, one-touch passing, and high ball techniques into training sessions, coaches can develop well-rounded players capable of effectively navigating zonal defenses.
This workshop is a valuable resource for field hockey coaches aiming to enhance their team's offensive strategies against zone marking systems.
