Crossing and Finishing

1.) There should be two feeders either side of the centre spot (one feeding to the left and the other the right)

2.) (Looking at the screen shot above) The feeder should pass the ball to the right into Player 1 (in the channel)

3.) Player 1 should then play the ball into Player 2 who should lay the ball off into the channel for Player 1 to run onto

4.) Player 1 should then cross the ball into the box for Player 3 (the striker) to attack. The left hand side should then follow the same combination.

Make sure roles are changed around to give players a go in every position.

Progressions:

1.) After the FEEDER has played the ball to Player 1 they should time their run to get into the box and help the attacker (encouraging the two to talk e.g. "cross over", "back post" etc)

2.) Add in a defender to make it harder for attackers to score and making it more game like

Encourage the player crossingthe ball to mix up their deliveries (e.g. driven hard and low, pulled back, heading height etc)

Attacking Play and Defending

1.) Player 1 passes the ball into Player 2's feet. As soon as the pass is made Player 1 should sprint around the second red cone and into a position to defend

2.) Player 2 plays the ball into a space for the attacker to run onto

3.) It is then up to the attacker to make the following decisions: do they take the shot first time, take a touch and shoot, try and beat the defender and shoot, look at the goalkeeper's positioning and decide where the ball needs to be placed.

The ball is then fed from the other side, ensure positions are rotated

(Players 3 are inactive for the first part of the session, they should be added in the second part)

Part 2 Progression:

1.) This time Players 3 should be included

2.) Attackers, Players 1 and Players 2 should carry out the same sequence as Part 1 of the session

3.) After the Attacker shoots at goal they then have to receive the ball off the two Player 3's in any order. They have to be able to get there ahead of the defender and shoot. So in total the attackers have 3 shots at goal.

The main focus should be the attacker looking at the goalkeeper and defender's positioning and making the correct decision when to shoot and where to place it.

Simple Finishing

1.) Player 1 should play the ball into Player 2's feet

2.) Player 2 should then lay the ball off for Player 1 to run onto and stike first time

3.) Player 1 should take the place of Player 2 and Player 2 should get the ball and join the back of the line

Progressions:

1.) Make players strike the ball with their weak foot

2.) Make the player laying off the ball chip up the ball slightly so the striker has to hit it on the half volley

3.) Make the feeder lay off the ball closer to the goalkeeper so the striker and keeper have to race to the ball
