The video tutorial explains a defensive practice called 'Figure 8 Intercepting'. It involves three players: two feeders and one defender. The feeders maintain a steady rhythm while the defender aims to intercept the ball by running in a figure of 8 pattern around the feeders. The defender should drive to the central point between the feeders to avoid contact. The video highlights the importance of turning towards the feeder, minimizing footsteps, and pushing off from the outside leg to enhance interception power.
