Set Up:

Ball #1:

• Server starts in one corner of the field and plays a long range pass to the opposite attacker.

• The attacker controls and races forward, then cuts inside through the gates, looking to beat the mannequin and shoot on the goal.

• The attacker then becomes the server. The server runs to the other side and joins the attacking line.

Ball #2:

• Server plays a shorter pass

• The attacker times the run so that their first touch goes through the gate. From there, they beat the mannequin and shoot on goal.

Teaching Topics:

• First touch

• Traveling with the ball

• Feints and exagerated movements

• Finishing skills - using mannequines/defenders as disguise
