Ten Shots, Drill #5
Ten Shots, Drill #5
Set Up:
There are eight players set up in the attacking third of the field. The shooter (Player 1) begins at the penalty spot, calling for passes from the Feeders in a random order. The shooter should go as quickly as possible from one shot to the next, shooting each ball within two touches. After ten shots, the shooter switches out. During the drill, the shooters keep a running tally of goals scored.
Coaching Points:
1. Get your body turned sideways towards the goal before making the first touch.
2. Look up and deal with the goalkeeper as opposed to just hitting the ball towards goal.
3. Approach the ball at a forty-five degree angle. Circle the approaching run if necessary.
Progressions:
1. Air ball service.
2. Driven ball service.
