Purpose

Players get familiar with shooting off the dribble and with making moves to get open for a shot.

Drill Setup

  • Create a grid that is 15 yards long by 20 yards wide.
  • Put a goal at each end.

How it Works

  1. Divide players into two teams. Then divide was team into two lines – one in each field corner of the goal they are defending.
  2. Coach is at midfield with all the balls. Coach serves a ball to one of the corners and first player from each line runs onto the itch to play 2 vs. 2.
  3. Play ends on a goal, shot or out of bounds and next four players go.

Coaching Tips

  • Players should be running fast with the ball and using both long and short touches. They should also have their heads u scanning the field.
  • When a player gets past a defender they should touch the ball in the direction of the goal to set up their shooting foot for an accurate kick.
