This drill is all about finishing inside the 18 yard box and also includes some dribbling , vision and defending. The group of players will split up into 2 groups, with one group being the attackers and 1 group being the defenders. It will either be a 1v1 , 2v2, or a 3v3 and these will vary each time. The attackers will start outside the 18 yard box with the ball and will have to dribble it into the area and try and score past the defenders and goalkeeper. The attackers wont be allowed to shoot until they enter the 18 yard box which gives the defenders time to come out and set. The aim of this drill is to score as goals as possible and be sharp and cliniclal infront of goal

This drill is a 8v8 overall however it is a very narrow pitch and it is only 6v6 inside the width of the 18 yard box as there are 2 wingers per team on each side of the bitch which can be used as bounce players or to deliver a cross into the box. The scoring in this game is 1 goal awarded for a normal goal and 2 goals awarded if you score from a cross inside the box from the wide players. Once a players passes to a wide player they then swap positions with them and the player from the game goes to be the wide player, and the wide player can either dribble into the pitch, pass to a teammate or cross the ball into the box. This drills encourages balls into the box and clinical finishing infront of goal, linking to the aim of th session.
