Technical (20 mins)

Adaptations (Progressions & Regressions):

Two groups of players on either side of penalty area touchline. Each player has a ball. First player in Group A passes the ball between the two poles in front of the box and runs out to retrieve the ball. They turn with the ball through the poles back towards goal and take a shot at net. Player retrieves their ball, and Group B now sends first player. Alternate between groups, and rotate the keepers after every 4 shots.

Progression- add a defender to impact urgency, game realism.

Regression- move poles in if not seeing success

Mechanics- head up to view net, body facing target, arms out for balance, plant non-kicking foot next to ball, head over ball as player steps through, surface of foot selected and follow through towards net

Challenges, Conditions or Targets:

Time limit to encourage players to hustle to ball; Scoring challenge between two groups
