Shot on Goal with Give-and-Go and Through Pass

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

Setup

Set up a goal and four cones (A-D) as shown. One player each goes to cones B-D, the rest go with balls to starting cone A.

Procedure

Player A plays a pass to player B. B redirects the ball via a first-time pass to player C, who in turn lets the ball bounce into the run of player D, who shoots on goal. The players start their action before the pass redirection, at the moment of their predecessor's backswing, with a counter-movement. The position change of the players follows clockwise.

Tip

- The receiver/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 pass to the wall passer should be played to his strong foot. - 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. - Make sure that shooting with both right and left foot is trained. - Different shooting techniques (inside-of-the-foot shot, instep shot, curling, etc.) can be practised (possibly on the coach's instruction). - 4 cones, 1 full-size goal(s)
