TECHNICAL (15 mins)

Setup

With two goals facing each other about 30 yards apart, place a goalkeeper in each goal. Set three flags at midfield on the left, center, and right sides of the field. On the left and right flags, place a cone 5 yards past the flags and set a player at each of these cones. Two players should start at the center flag, one player for each side of the drill. The remaining players should start along the endline with a ball each.

Instructions

Player 1 plays a ball into player 2. Player 2 checks to the ball and plays it back to player 1. Player 1 plays the ball into player 3. Player 3 lays off a ball to player 2. Player 2 has a timed run around the flag and shoots 1st time on goal. All players rotate forward one position (Player 1 becomes Player 2, Player 2 Becomes Player 3, Player 3 shags the ball).

Variations

Limit all passes and touches to ONE-TOUCH.

Coaching Points

Good solid passes, play in 1 touch if possible.

Good timed movement and runs (don't get there too early).

Player prepping the touch for the shooter should simply lay the ball off for a good 1 time shot.

Good shooting form leaning forward through the ball, and landing on the kicking foot.

MOTRCYLE TACTICAL

This practice is a high tempo shooting exercise designed to improve accuracy and power in

shooting and transition to defending. This is also a good work out for your goalkeepers.

Field Preparation

Entire Group, 2 Full Size Goals with Goalkeepers, Area 30 x 30 yards, Cones or Flag poles,

Supply of Balls

Coaching Pointers:

Divide players into two equal groups. Groups are placed diagonally opposite, as in the diagram

above. Goalkeepers are placed in both goals. Two flag poles are positioned in the middle of the

area. Each player has a ball.

The practice starts when player “1” attacks the flag pole, performs a body feint and shoots at

goal. After shooting he must transition quickly from attack mode to defense and sprint across the

square to defend player “2”. Player “2’ is attacking the opposite goal. After he shoots he then

must defend. After defending players return to their own groups.

Focus On:

Accuracy over Power.

Quickness of transition from offense to defense.

Goalkeepers shot stopping.
