Hybrid Pressing - Jon Mackenzie

Jon Mackenzie: Hybrid Pressing

In this Coach Development Programme webinar, originally delivered in 2024, renowned football tactics analyst Jon Mackenzie explores one of the most influential developments in the modern game: Hybrid Pressing.

Drawing upon examples from elite football, Jon examines how coaches are increasingly blending man-oriented and zonal approaches to create more adaptable, aggressive and effective pressing structures. Rather than viewing pressing as a simple choice between man-marking and zonal defending, this session explores the evolving ideas shaping how top teams regain possession and control matches.

As with all Jon’s work, the webinar goes beyond the surface level, challenging coaches to think differently about defensive organisation, tactical evolution and the future direction of the game.
