Hi Nick,

We may change the title of this, as the practice is more aimed towards defensive organisation than transition. The transition is used to maintain the flow of the practice (enabling quick setup as teams change roles). You are right in that it is difficult for the defending team to recover, but it does create a habit of sprinting back.

The two yellow bibbed players are passive. This is to put the defensive and midfield units in game scenarios where central progression has been prevented, and play has been forced around. This is the purpose of the practice, in our opinion, how the defensive and midfield units defend when play has been forced wide. Obviously, we can't see or hear the actual technical coaching detail, but the practice provides this constant scenario. 

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Morning, Kenneth. Apologies for the delayed response on this one.

We haven’t set a specific deadline yet, but it is very much in progress behind the scenes. As you can imagine, it’s a substantial piece of work, and we’re currently breaking it down into four major parts to ensure we do it justice.

Thanks for your patience.
