Shooting Box

Set Up:

A shooting zone is set up in the center of the field, on the 18. A target player (Player 1) is stationed in the zone, and three players (Players 2, 3,and 4) are stationed at the cone, set up ten yards behind the shooting zone. Players 2, 3, and 4 pass their ball into the target player, and he must turn and shoot while still inside of the shooting zone. Players should try to get the shot off in two touches. After taking six shots, the target player rotates out to the passing line.

Coaching Points:

1.  Your first touch should allow you to run onto the shot.

2.  Your first touch should allow you to shoot at all four corners.

3.  Get the GK moving along his line.

Progressions:

1.  Add a defender to pressure from behind, but not block shots.
