Watch as Coach Patrick Tuohy explains, and players demonstrate this defensive Z drill. This drill replicates a righty attackman with the defender closing and his right foot high. The defender will drop step to beat the offensive player to a spot. The defender will open his left foot in the direction of the cone and can lateral run or shuffle. The defender will close on the 2nd cone repeating the process.
Patrick Tuohy is currently the Director of 3d Garden State.
