Field Hockey Tactics | Positional Attack Example - Club de Campo

Club de Campo de Madrid is playing out from the back in a wide 3-4-3 formation against Gantoise traditional 3-1-3-3 diamond press.

They challenge the zonal defence by sitting their central forward in the 'right mid-free fan gap', opening up space on the opposite side for the left mid to make a free run into the circle.

The high forward also plays a key role here by holding the last defender up.

One poor bit of control from defender the difference between an interception and goal. Tried going flat stick on a bouncing ball, rookie error. Positioning was right, technique let her down. Upright stick take, turnover, attack down vacant space right side.
