Set up a goal, two starting cones, and a cone where the wall passer positions as shown. The players distribute evenly at both starting cones. The balls are also distributed to both starting cones. The starting players always have a ball.
Procedure
The wall passer is alternately played by the starting players of both groups. He lets the ball bounce back into the running path. Now the ball reception and control follows with one touch, or for weaker groups with 2-3 touches. After a short speed dribble, the shot on goal follows. The wall passer rotates regularly.
Tip
- Make sure that the pass/shot is trained with both right and left foot. To do this, you can have players shoot only with the left from one cone and only with the right from the other. - Pay attention to correct body posture when shooting: upper body over the ball; plant foot approx. 30-40 cm offset to the side of the ball, foot pointing in the shooting direction; arms swing along; the arm closest to the kicking leg follows the leg's backswing motion, the other is brought forward; eyes are on the ball at the moment of the shot.- The wall passer makes a short counter-movement as soon as the starting player goes into the backswing and then comes briefly toward the ball. - The starting player only runs after his pass when the wall passer goes into the backswing. - The ball reception and control should be a fluid movement. Excessive bouncing of the ball or reception deviating from a straight running path should be avoided. - Different shooting techniques (inside-of-the-foot shot, instep shot, curling, etc.) can be practised (possibly on the coach's instruction). - 3 cones, 1 full-size goal(s)
