18 Yard Drill

Setup:

Form three lines of players near one goal. Lines #1 and #3 will be at the 18 with #1 being even with the opposite goal post and #3 being at the corner of the box. Line #2 will be at the end line even with line #3.

Execution:

1. The first player in line #1 begins with the ball and passes to the first player in line #2.
2. Player #2 drop passes to player #3.
3. #3 crosses the ball to the far post where player #1 is sprinting.
4. #1 will then one touch the ball into the net.
5. Similar to other drills, start without a goalie but to increase the difficulty you may consider adding one.

Coaching Tips:

• This drill will help players work on passing, crossing, and finishing around the goal.
