Topic:
Ball Striking
Explanation:
The teams play 3v3 on a small field. When a player scores a goal or when a coach wants to reward a player for effort, the player comes off to the side of the field to try to kick a field goal in order to score a point. If you do not have access to a field goal, you can use another net or make a net with cones.
Coaching Points:
1. If chipping the ball, keep the toe pointed up.
2. If hitting the ball like a cross, turn the foot out, point the toe down, and slice under the ball.
3. Approach the ball at a 45 degree angle to generate power.
Progressions:
1. Move the goal further away from the shooter.
Players Required:
12-18
