Shooting drill. (20 mins)

4 cones

2 poles

Gate 1 will pass the ball to the player standing in between the 2 poles. This player is allowed 2 touches before they can finish. They will then recieve a ball from gate 2 and replicate the same thing.

Coaching points -

Can the player keep the touch in front of them to shoot, rather than having the ball stuck under their foot. This allows them to get their head up to look where to shoot.
