Organization:
As shown
Instructions:
Players dribble straight towards the yellow cone in the center and perform the feint and go to go through the gate and then finish on goal. The next time the player goes they must go through the other gate. The next player can go when the attacker shoots their ball.
Coaching Points:
Carry at speed straight to the defender.
Technique for feint. Player steps next to the ball with the plant foot with their knee bent and shoulder dropped. Then they use the outside of the opposite foot to push the ball away. As the players get more comfortable performing these steps then start to have them really exaggerate the plant and dropping of their shoulder.
Progressions/Regressions:
Progress to double feint
