Organization
Area approx. 30 widthx20yd, with 3 grids across zone
Implementation
One striker in the middle zone is the striker - rest of team is lined up along the sideline. First player in line is ready for the go from the coach. On GO - player runs to middle square and then back pedals into the square on the side of the net (right side). Player receives the ball from GK and runs with the ball at pace down the sideline. Player then crosses the ball to the striker who has 2 touches to finish on net. GK can be rotated on team's choice.

Organization
Set-up field with two mini nets and and wide channels approx 4yds in width. Add central lines to keep opposing teams separate.
Implementation
Team A vs Team B attempting to score in mini nets. Encourage players to move the ball quickly in order to attempt to create gaps to try to have a shot on net with. Wide channels are the only available way to go into opposing's half - however no defenders allowed in. If player drives down wide channel - she can cut back or attempt to shoot herself.
IF enough players - can add end zone with a target player to try to play to as well.
Coaching Points
- shape in possession vs out of possession
- moving the ball quickly (pace of pass, use of feints, first touch)
- decision-making: am I going to drive on the flank, am I going to try to have a shot on net...
- defending team encouraged to stay tight and pressure where ball is
