Clarifying Corner-Kick Responsibilities

Scenario

Players often remember the delivery or the main run but forget the supporting roles. This example uses a clean starting frame and one short follow-up sequence to keep every assignment visible before the delivery, during the first contact, and after the rebound.

Board setup

• Place attackers, defenders, goalkeeper, edge players, and rest-defense players before drawing delivery.
• Keep role labels outside crowded areas when possible.
• Use one ball arrow for the delivery and separate player arrows for blocker or runner movement.

Teaching points

• Labeling responsibilities matters more than adding multiple decorative arrows.
• The first frame should make the starting positions obvious without motion.
• The second frame should show only the runs that define the routine.

How to present it in TacticSlate

1. 1. Place all starting positions and add labels before drawing movement.
2. 2. Show the delivery zone, blocker path, and primary run in the first animation step.
3. 3. Use a follow-up frame for secondary attacks and rebound coverage only if needed.
4. 4. Share a still with the labels intact so players can review responsibilities quickly.

Explanation notes

• Use the same label names in the board and in spoken set-piece calls.
• If a run is not essential to the routine, leave it off the first version and add it only during review.

Review checklist

• Every attacker has a visible starting role.
• The delivery path is visually distinct from player movement.
• Rebound and rest-defense roles are still visible after the first contact.
