Description
Objective: To improve ideas, and decision making for set pieces.
General Notes: Decision Tree: Can I score? Can I assist? Can I keep Possession? If the wall or GK is set up poorly, take the attempt and put it on frame, if not go through your options and analyze based on the defensive set up. All players need to anticipate a developing situation and not shut off mentally or watch the ball.
Player 1: Should be right footed, a good striker of the ball, and patient enough to go through the decision process.
Player 2: Should be left footed, a good striker of the ball, and patient enough to go through the decision process.
Player 3: Should be a good finisher.
Player 4: Should be a good striker of the ball, a good decision maker, and a good finisher.
All other Players: Should be in support positions, aware of the plays and their options, and not crowding space of the potential play(s).
Psychology of Winning: Without self dicipline, success is impossible.
College:
Homework:
Practice Mantras: You are not yet Ronaldo, make the right decision for the best chance on goal. 100% of shots off frame or over the bar do not go in.

Option 1 (10 mins)
Organization: Offenseive set pieces in and around the box. Can add defenders so players will have to make decisions in the course of play.
Instructions: 2 players on the ball. 1 or 2 players on each end of the wall. One player joining in from the weak side. Go through options and decision making of the 2 players on the ball, and then Player 4 if he becomes involved.
Options & Decisions: If player 3 (or 5) is unmarked, Player 1 (or 2) passes ball to player 3 (or 5) who has 2 options: 1. 1st time strike on goal. OR 2. Play to Player 4 who can either strike first time OR play a pass back to Player 3 creating a 2v1 on the GK.
Coaching Points: Survey all your options. Be selfish, but not too selfish. Weight of passes. Passes are for (not too) teammates in set pieces. Every attempt on goal must be on frame, and below the bar. Timing of runs. Communication so everyone knows what the play is going to be.

Option 2 (10 mins)
Organization: Offenseive set pieces in and around the box. Can add defenders so players will have to make decisions in the course of play.
Instructions: 2 players on the ball. 1 or 2 players on each end of the wall. One player joining in from the weak side. Go through options and decision making of the 2 players on the ball, and then Player 4 if he becomes involved.
Options & Decisions: Player 1 (or 2) plays a ball to joining in Player 4, and bends an outside run to the near post, joining in with Player 4 for a combination OR looking for a rebound. Player 3 (or 5) Turns an makes a short run to join in with Player 4. Player 4 can (1) strike 1st time on goal, (2) pass to Player 3, or (3) pass to player 4.
Coaching Points: Survey all your options. Be selfish, but not too selfish. Weight of passes. Passes are for (not too) teammates in set pieces. Every attempt on goal must be on frame, and below the bar. Timing of runs. Communication so everyone knows what the play is going to be.

Option 3 (10 mins)
Organization: Offenseive set pieces in and around the box. Can add defenders so players will have to make decisions in the course of play.
Instructions: 2 players on the ball. 1 or 2 players on each end of the wall. One player joining in from the weak side. Go through options and decision making of the 2 players on the ball, and then Player 4 if he becomes involved.
Options & Decisions: If Players 3 and/or 5 are properly marked, Player 3 (or 5) should jump, making contact with the marking defender to create more space for a strike below him by Player 1 (or 2). Player 1 then makes a defesive recovery run to prevent counter. Player 2 makes a run to the top of the box, anticipating a poor clearance or rebound. Player 4 makes a run to the middle of the goal anticipating a rebound.
Coaching Points: Survey all your options. Be selfish, but not too selfish. Weight of passes. Passes are for (not too) teammates in set pieces. Every attempt on goal must be on frame, and below the bar. Timing of runs. Communication so everyone knows what the play is going to be.
