SHOOTING DRILL VIDEO "PASS, FOLLOW, SHOOT"

PURPOSE:

• This simple drill can be used for most age groups. Works on one touch, fast passing and good quality finishing.

SET UP:

• 6 to 12 players (+ 1 GK)

• Use a third of the pitch.

• 20 Minutes

• 1 large goal + 5 cones

THE DRILL:

• 1 player each on the 4 cones. The rest behind the back cone.

• #5 starts the play by passing to #4. One touch diagonal passing all the way to #1 who takes a touch or two and finishes

• Players follow their pass to the next cone.

• The next player in line starts as soon as the player in front is ready

COACHES NOTES:

• One Touch Passing - Players should use this drill to weight their passes as if they were doing a one/two. Pass the ball to the next player so they can pass it with their first touch.

• Shoot for the corners - Get the strikers to strike to the corners. Make sure strikers use both feet.

• Fitness - The recovery run from the striker to the back of the line should be at 100%!

PROGRESSION:

• Add a defender in the box.
