Butch Lauffer teaches the dynamic and adaptable 4-1-4-1 formation using a whole-part-whole teaching method.

By incorporating the 4-1-4-1, you will gain more flexibility of the shape. The 4-1-4-1 also allows you to play with a holding midfielder, which gives your midfield players more freedom to play between the lines.

Before each on-field demonstration Lauffer gives an in-depth, computer animated explanation illustrating the tactics, soccer principles and key coaching points that should be employed with the 4-1-4-1.

Coach Lauffer begins by distinguishing between the roles and responsibilities of the two most important positions in this formation: the holding midfielder and the striker. The holding midfielder acts as a windshield wiper that runs back and forth applying defensive pressure in front of the defensive line by shielding and intercepting passes. The lone striker needs to be strong and mobile and be able to hold the ball until supporting players build an attack from the midfield and fullback positions.

Defensively, Lauffer illustrates the 4-1-4-1's flexibility in matching up against the most common formations, the 4-3-3, 4-4-2 and 3-5-2. He follows with an on-field demonstration against a 4-4-2 with athletes. Lauffer implements the 4-1-4-1 with three drills that focus on the movements and responsibilities of the back line, midfield line and strikers. He ends the defensive segment by covering defensive tactics and responsibilities for the team as a whole.

Offensively, Lauffer illustrates how simple it is for the 4-1-4-1 to be adjusted to a 4-3-3, 4-4-2 and 4-2-3-1 depending on game situations. Along with its adaptability, another attacking advantage of the 4-1-4-1 is the space it creates for supporting players to make deep, penetrating runs between and behind the defense. Additionally, Lauffer presents a drill he uses for the central players to increase their vision and awareness in order to better utilize the up-back-through passing pattern and movement off of the ball.

Finally, he brings it back to the whole picture again and identifies ideal scenarios that should be developed in a game, like creating 2v1 opportunities in wide areas with overlapping runs and attacking from deep positions.

Get more lay-ups, free throws and open shots against zone defenses.

In this on-court presentation, Matt Painter outlines all of the important elements, Xs and Os, and rules from his zone offense, which contains motion principles with rules. His teams go from transition offense into motion offense versus man or zone defense.

Coach Painter demonstrates the rules and principles by taking the players through 3-on-0, 4-on-0 and finally 5-on-0. See how Painter teaches his players to utilize shot fakes, pass fakes, misdirection dribble and the rip and go to successfully execute the Cut-Thru Zone offense. The players must keep 12-15ft spacing, cut to the high post, speed or hard cut to the short corner, constantly change their movement, and use the misdirection dribble to move the defense. Benefits from these actions include natural overloads that create open shots and it will constantly put your players in offensive rebound position.

After building the player movement, Painter coaches the players in a 5-on-5 setting versus a 2-3 defense while then incorporating the use of the ball screen.

If you are looking for new ideas for attacking zone defenses this DVD will give your players many cutting options, using the dribble effectively, while also feeding the post and looking for cutters.

Dave Lebo, the father of head coach Jeff Lebo, is considered one of the most successful high school basketball coaches in the state of Pennsylvania. He directed the boys program at Carlisle (Pa.) High School, all but two years from 1977-98 and compiled a remarkable 365-149 overall record. While at Carlisle, Dave Lebo guided his teams to four consecutive State Championships.

In this on-court clinic presentation, Coach Lebo takes you through 15 principles for attacking zone defense that he incorporated through his successful career. These principles are what he used throughout his career in building a simple zone attack to go against a 2-3 zone, as well as an attack to go against various other zones. His principles include, be unselfish, beat the zone down the floor, spacing-spread the zone, ball movement, player movement, penetrate the zone, use a shot fake and pass fake, cutters, develop an inside-outside attack, flatten the zone, overload the zone, be shot ready, screen the zone and attack the offensive glass.

Lebo moves to the court and, in a 5-on-0 demonstration, provides for you his two basic attacks versus zone defense. The Balance Attack and the Overload Attack. The Balanced Attack is used versus the 2-3 zone. Lebo covers each position's responsibilities, as well as movement according to a pass or cut. This simple and effective attack covers basic movement, post movement, use of the short corner, cutters, high post and the skip pass. Lebo also takes you through his Overload Attack versus any other zone which includes the 1-3-1, 1-2-2, 3-2, and match-ups. He finishes talking about coaches needing to have 3-5 set plays to run against a zone along with these two basic attacks and shows a set Coach Dean Smith gave him called Away.

With an increase in teams running multiple defensive systems, teams are running more zones at you. If you need to develop or improve your zone attack, Coach Dave gives you many ideas and concepts to incorporate to you program.
