Touch & Strike

Touch & Strike

Two lines of players, one to the side and with soccer balls. Players take turns passing to the shooting line. The shooter takes a positive first touch and shoots on goal. After shooting, the players switch lines. Coach players' technique when passing (inside-of-the-foot) and shooting (top/knuckle of the foot).

Coaching Points:

  • Take a measured first touch
    • Big enough to get a full strike
    • Not too far away, likely losing the ball
  • Use proper technique to achieve power and accuracy
  • Get shots off quickly - imagine you're in a game situation
Once the players are successful with their first touch and striking technique, have the group race to see how many goals they can score in two minutes. Can they beat their score next round?
Add Challenge: Strikers shoot one-time shots.
Add Challenge: Passers pressure the shooter after passing, attempting to get a block or win the ball.
