Organization:
Area: 40y x penalty area width
Set up four cones in a letter ‘Y’ shape, with the two highest cones placed 15 yards outside of the penalty box. Two groups of players work towards large goals over the left and right sides at the same time. Player 1 passes to Player 2, who opens up and passes up to Player 3. Player 3 dribbles to the 18 yard line and shoots. At first, warm the goalkeeper up with shots to the hands. After several minutes, the players shoot to score. Players follow their passes, then switch lines after shooting.
Variation: Player 2 bounces the ball back to Player 1, who then plays a long pass to Player 3.
