Shooting on One Goal with Football-Specific Action Combinations from Both Sides Simultaneously

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players

Setup

Two opposing courses are set up using hurdles and cones. In the middle, a goal is set up as shown in the diagram. A goalkeeper goes in the goal. The balls are distributed next to the cones on the field. The players are distributed across the two courses at the starting cones next to the goal and line up one behind the other. Two cones are positioned left and right in the centre of the field.

Procedure

Player A jumps over a hurdle, sprints to the ball, dribbles it to the cone, and shoots. Player B simultaneously jumps over a hurdle, also sprints to the ball, dribbles it around the cones, and shoots. Player A is typically faster since he has the shorter running path, so both players can start nearly simultaneously.

Tip

- The goal is to promote fast, explosive movements and accelerations combined with match-realistic techniques (dribbling, shooting). - When shooting, pay attention to shot power and accuracy. - Palms are open, do not make fists. - Light, easy footwork, no stomping or pounding, but lightness on the feet. - Quick, short movements. - Short ground contact time. - When sprinting, start in a staggered stance on the balls of the feet. At the beginning, the upper body is leaning well forward, the centre of gravity is at hip level, and the gaze is downward. After pushing off forcefully from the balls of the feet, the upper body is gradually straightened, the gaze lifts, and the stride frequency increases. The arms swing actively in alternation with the leg movement (when the right leg goes forward, the left arm goes forward, and vice versa). After the first 3-4 steps on the balls of the feet, the foot rolls through the entire foot (heel to sole to ball of the foot), the upper body is upright and steady, and the stride frequency increases to maximum. - 6 cones, 2 hurdle(s)
