See: https://eyecons.com/videos/pkc-top-english-commentary-8265

After the game, the coach looks at the line-ups and performances and the statistics.

Top's women were more effective (12 goals and 33 attempts => 30%) than those of PKC (7 goals and 37 attempts = <20%). The PKC men were more effective (14 goals and 67 attempts => 20% than those of TOP (10 goals and 70 attempts = 14%)

Other interesting figures are:

	attacks	time	Goals/attempts	Men/women goals. + Attempts women	Rebound won/ lost
PKC 1e attack	36	11:22 minutes	8/47	4/4 + 16	18/27
PKC 2e attack	33	12:17 minutes	13/57	10/3 + 21	22/29
TOP 1e attack	36	11:03 minutes	14/55	5/9 + 31	15/20
TOP 2e attack	33	13:10 minutes	8/38	5/3 + 11	10/19
Total PKC	69	23:39	21/104	14/7 + 37	40/ 56
Total TOP	69	24:13	22/93	10/12 + 42	25/39

 

               

The distribution of the attempts by the players within the zones is also interesting:

PKC  1e attack: Leeuwenhoek 2 goals 16 attempts.  (Total: 8/47)                                                                                                   PKC 2e attack: Jonker: 9 goals 28 attempts; van der Werff: 3 goals 13 attempts!  (Total: 13/57)

Top 1e attack: Split 4 goals 19 attempts; Brouwer: 5 goals 12 attempts.   (Total: 14/55)                                                                 TOP 2e attack: Snel 4 goals 19 attempts. (Total: l8/38)  

After this summary, it is time to look at the video again.

The 1e attack of PKC plays many times 2 – 2. The passing (from the post) is sloppy.  There were 8 attacks without a shot! Besides that, Kunst and Leeuwenhoek lost too many rebounds. The attacks of PKC are too predictable, too direct. Also, PKC 2e attack: Jonker was the man who should score He did it. Jonker was served this way. He was able to shoot (28 X) through excellent rebounds from van Wijngaarden and later Kunst.  After the line-up has been changed: van Wijngaarden on Snel there was a better balance. Kunst played with Jonker and was able to win his rebounds. Pity that Leeuwenhoek shoot imprecisely.

The 1rst attack of TOP plays also 2-2 but the first pass out of the post is not always an assist. They use the pass from the post as a start-up, the next pass is a wide pass to reach the potential shooter and if possible and needed, they double or they go with a long pass to Pikaar (the triangle), mostly back or side positioned of the post. This triangle, they play is done with a high tempo. The defenders who are often expecting an early shot and are watching this communication, are surprised. (Brouwer and Split and sometimes Pikaar). In the 2e attack of TOP is Snel every match the key figure, the key to success. (Sometimes is Hendriks important.) During this match she was less important. She is seen as a top defender.

The weak positions of TOP are Flokstra as defender. Leeuwenhoek showed that he can set himself free. Leeuwenhoek showed also that Flokstra is weak when you can go for the running in. Verheugt is in most matches responsible for one goal. Give her that goal not more but the girl who defends Verheugt can help by squeezing to ball lines.

 

Split is not a good defender. In the new line up she will probably defend Hintzbergen. Hintzbergen can get profit when she double with van der Werff. Hintzbergen is also a good shooter!

 

 

 

 

Next match: TOP – PKC

Defensive:

PKC should break the tempo of attack TOP. Especially the attack of Pikaar, Mostard, Split and Brouwer.  If you want to break the tempo then you must play front defence and break the long ball lines. So, pressure on ball lines and long running lines.  This can be trained this week. If Kunst play on Pikaar he cannot look at the ball when he is playing with the back to the ball. His task is only pressure on Pikaar. No look after a shot. Jonker has more chances to look and to win / intercept the ball.

Van der Werff and Hintzbergen must improve with the help of their colleagues. PKC really must defend now and play strictly 1 on 1 against Brouwer and Split. Van der Werff and Hintzbergen have one task: defend 1 on 1! Snel Is also particularly important. He needs van Wijngaarden in the 1 on 1, he cannot use his power.  But van Wijngaarden should also play 1 on 1. Leeuwenhoek should do the interceptions.

That has consequences for the line-up. The MOST IMPORTANT preferences: van Wijngaarden plays with Leeuwenhoek. Hintzbergen en van der Werff on Brouwer and Split.

TOP 1e attack	Mostard	PKC 1e defence	Jonker
	Pikaar		Kunst
	Brouwer (preference fort her right side)		Hintzbergen
	Split (preference for her right side)		Van der Werff
TOP 2e attack	Snel	PKC 1e attack	Van Wijngaarden
	Flokstra		Leeuwenhoek
	Hendriks  (left hander)		Schröder
	Verheugt (left hander)		Caluwé

 

Front defence means strict 1 on 1 in all positions. Split and Brouwer attacks are important and must locked down. The vocal coaching in defence must improve.

Attack PKC:

PKC should play more and more 3-1. Passing in short lines and variation in long lines.

Communication in attack is understanding and timing. Sometimes it is better to make decisions for easy passing. Only when a player can surprise his defender he needs long passing. The rebound position is particularly important. This can be an attacking position. From this position ‘the rebounder’ can set himself free when he perceives that the front defender is focussing outside.  Some attackers like Leeuwenhoek and van der Werff should make their shots when there is no rebound.

Rebounding is a task for every attacker after a shot (running rebound). Dividing the zones around the post. Also, the shooter should immediately go for the rebound after his shot.

Training this week:

Try to play 4-0. If you have a chance, go for the shot. After the shot each attacker reads the ball and go to the korf area. Read if the ball falls in your area, to win the ball. Start another 4-0. Defenders follow their attackers but also start reading the ball. If attackers read this behaviour, they can find the free positions. In the beginning defenders can only intercept the passes. The rebound is always for the attackers.

After the first goal the defenders may intercept the rebound, but they must defend strictly 1 on 1. Defenders use the hands and arms to make the passing more difficult for the attackers.

From 4-0 a transition to 3-1. After a rebound, the rebound player must leave the post, another goes into the rebound position. Rebounding is a task for every attacker. The rebound player gets front defence. Rebound player read his defender’s focus. He can take advantage of that, to free himself. After three interceptions attack and defence change.

End the training with a match where the coach watches the process of the attack setup.

Finally, the trainer also allows 2-2 and back defence is also an option. But after resolving back defence, all defenders switch to front defence, with pressure on the attackers.
