    Huliano, I am a newbie and also want to learn. My question is.... Is your suggestion not a man for man marking?
    Where is the point of difference or advantage?
    Please advise? Also I do not know the strength of the players, so I beg forgiveness for ignorance

    From Wiki:
    Zone defense refers to each player being assigned an area of the floor that he is responsible for. He is to defend the goal against anyone in his area. The players will rotate as one team depending on where the ball is. If the ball is on the left side of the court, the whole team will shift over to the left. When the ball is brought in the middle, like at the free-throw line, then the zone is broken. The key to defeating the zone is to get the ball in the middle, as someone has to guard him, which breaks the entire defensive scheme down.

    Man to man is were each individual is assigned an opposing player and is to follow him around regardless of where he goes. This is generally what teams run as their defensive strategy for most of the game. Should the defense be playing poorly, a zone might be implemented.

    --> Zonal marking if you play counter-attack because every one is ready in their position.
