Indoor Training: Shooting Rotation

Pitch: Set up two lanes running in opposite directions. In each lane a tall cone in a corner of the hall marks the starting position, in front of which a slalom course of 4 cones leads diagonally across the pitch. At the end of each lane a bench lies in front of the goal area of the goal opposite.

Equipment: 8 cones, 2 tall cones, 2 benches, 2 goals, 1 ball per player.

Players: The players are assigned to the two starting positions, each with a ball. Two goalkeepers occupy the goals.

• On the command, the first player at each of the two starting positions dribbles into the slalom course.
• At the end of the course they pass against the bench lying on the floor.
• They then take the ball with the first touch and finish at the indoor goal with the goalkeeper.
• After finishing, the player collects the ball and joins the queue at the next position.

Scoring: Play as a team competition: which team scores the most goals in the rotation? Alternatively as an individual competition: which player scores the most goals?

Variations:

• Move the benches to the other side so that the sequence can be played on both sides.
• Set different dribbling tasks in the slalom course, for example dragging the ball with the sole.
