Phase 1 (20 mins)

Objective: Improve attacking heading and finishing in front of goal.

Activity: Designate 2 servers. Servers will have all the balls. Server will serve ball in air to players getting around mannequin. Player will head ball at goal. Player will then turn to other server where they will receive a ball on the ground to side foot into goal. Players should then go to closest lines. 3 min rounds and rotate servers.

Coaching Points: Timing and pace of run. Body shape to the ball. What foot will we strike with. On the served ball, different technique. Technique of attacking header. Service must be good.

Guided Discovery Qs: Are we preparing the body shape as the ball is arriving? Are we picking a spot before we hit the ball? Head the ball?
