Set Up:
Seven players are set up inside of the penalty area, along with two Feeders. The shooter is stationed inside of a small target square placed between the penalty spot and the 18. The Feeders alternate service to the shooter, who fakes the shot and takes his first touch out of the square to finish on goal. After five shots, a new shooter rotates in. The goalkeepers switch out every three shots.
Coaching Points:
1. Your first touch must leave you with a good angle of approach to the shot.
2. Circle the approaching run if you have to in order to get the correct shooting angle.
3. Get your feet set, and choose your ball control technique as early as possible.
Progressions:
1. Air ball service.
2. Driven ball service.
