Set Up:
There are 12-16 players set up in the attacking third, starting at the cones. To begin play, the attackers make horizontal runs into the center, and then circle the cones before making their runs to the near and far posts. The Feeder crosses the ball, and the attackers finish. Upon completion, the attackers return to the other line. Service alternates between the two Feeders during the drill.
Coaching Points:
1. Time your run so that you can finish the header at sprint speed.
2. Circle your run and approach the cross at an angle.
3. If you can’t score with the header, head it back across to the other post.
Progressions:
1. The second player in line can finish rebounds.
