What’s in the Session?
The session will start with a dynamic exercise that engages the players both physically and mentally. For the practice to work, the players must be switched on mentally and the warm-up should be seen by all as not just getting ready physically.

This gives the forwards plenty of chances to finish, building their technical ability and their confidence in front of goal. The practices is intense with plenty of running to replicate finishing under fatigue, creating a likeness to game situations. The final practice draws together the technical aspects by putting them into a small sided game which encourages attacking play and plenty of balls into the box to feed the strikers and improve their finishing.
Having a striker with a cool head, composed movement and ruthless finishing ability feeds down throughout the rest of the team to give them the confidence that the team will score if you can get the ball to the main man. Discover your ultimate finisher with this tight, intense finishing session.
