Soccer Training Drills: The Basic Rules of Shielding

Following are some of the basic rules of Shileding the ball and you should make sure that you let your players know about these things, using the various soccer training drills:

• The players must avoid turning their back on the incoming defender from the opponent team. However, this may not be an easy thing to do, because if you cannot see your defender, you may not be able to decide about your next strategy.

Therefore, the coach must make their players practice, how to keep one shoulder, always pointed at the defender.

• However, there are times when you may want to turn your back on the incoming defender, but these are the situations, in which you are sure that you have a back support available for you. In that case, it will be very easy for you to play the ball very quickly to your team-mate.
