Session Overview

Chase Dodd uses UCLA and Princeton film to teach pressing defense as more than chasing steals: stay in front, protect inside water, deny the entry, and keep the player between the attacker and goal. He explains smart underwater contact, staying balanced through drives, forcing attackers toward uncomfortable choices, and recognizing tendencies from film so defenders can anticipate back-door drives and transitions between press, zone, and traps. Useful for athletes learning team defense, communication, and player-specific reads.
