Main Theme- Shooting/Breakaway (25 mins)

Organization:

Set up three gates a few yards outside the box, as shown.

Have a player stand in each gate with a ball each.

Instructions:

Player A starts by dribbling toward the goal, and go 1v1 with the keeper

After players A shoots, Player B combines w/ player A going 2v1 against the keeper.

After the ball is out of play/saved, Player C goes 1v1 against Player B going to goal. (OR player C can combined with player A and go 2v1 against player B going to goal)

Coaching Points:

Many different siutations gives the coach plenty of opportunity to make various coaching points.

Breakaway - Close the space as quickly as possible with control, get your head up to see where the keeper is. Make the keeper commit to dribble around him and score, or while he is running out take the shot quickly when he is not set to make the save.

2v1 - Have one player commit the keeper then pass the ball to the other player for an easy open goal shot. Make sure the players are spread out enough where the keeper cannot "defend" 2 players at once.

1v1 (or 2v1) - Quickly try and beat the defender early, so you have space once you get in behind the defender to get your head up and take the shot. If you dribble to far into the box, the keeper can/will come out and take the ball.

Progressions:

Add touch limit when possible.
