Set Up:
- 4 cones marking starting points for players as shown (2 on baseline injection marks, and 2 in line on the dashes outside the circle
- Lots of balls on each of the cones at top of the circle
- Spread players out evenly between cones and rotate after each shot
Challenge:
- Task the players to score 'X' amount of goals in 5 minutes (puts pressure on the delivery and deflection)
Technical points for deflector:
- Run towards the ball
- Get ball delivery to be aiming for far post / side board of far post
- Angle stick towards goal (doesn't have to be flat on ground, but helps for beginners)
- When on left post deflection, try and go reverse stick deflection

Key Points:
- Ball delivery aiming for far post

- Use pace of ball to deflect, and not stop the ball
