Better

Compact

Notice how our #4, 2 and 3 have stepped up to the other teams players and are ready to contest that ball as it gets there not after they receive it,  This is better team shape.  We are compact and close enough together to provide Cover for the Pressure but because it's indoor and those pesky walls, we need to give a little more depth. Also due to the smaller size of the teams, our Blue #4 can provide cover for #3 and mind the Red #9. At least until she drops in behind the line because there isn't offside. But let us contest balls to feet further up the field rather than waiting for them to receive them then running at us. We will just have to be constantly ready to get back to deal with long through balls. And our GK will play higher up when there is little danger of a shot to clean up any over hit through balls.  From an attacking perspective, they are playing between our defensive line and our mid field line.  We must close that space down while still being able to recover for through balls int the space behind the def line.  Like this we can better keep the ball out of our third and in their third.
