Chip and Charge

Setup: 

Set up three lines of players. One line will be parallel with the 18 and about 30 yards from the goal. Another line will be near midfield, near the center of the field, and even with the right goal post. The other line will be on the left side of the field. 

The player at the front of the left line will be player #1. The player at the front of the line parallel to the 18 will be player #2. The player at the front of the line in the center of the field will be player #3. 

Execution: 

1. Player #1 will begin with the ball.
2. #1 will pass to player #2 and then player #1 will make a run into the box.
3. Player #2 will one touch pass the ball to player #3.
4. Player #3 will chip the ball over the line of players that’s parallel with the 18. The pass
   will be into the box to player #1 who is making a run.
5. Player #1 will finish directing the ball into the net.
   

Coaching Tips: 

• This is a good drill to help with passing and making runs. It’s very good for working on chip- ping the ball into the box. It also works on finishing and scoring. A variation of this drill can be used as a play for an indirect kick in the offensive zone.
