Shooting & Goalscoring

Crossing - From the Left and Right:

Players in the middle pass the ball out to their respective wingers.

The winger receives the ball, and moves down the wing to then cross the ball back to the original passer, who has run into to the circle.

Shooting & Goalscoring

Changing the Point of Attack:

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2.

At the same time, player 3 makes a run infield to create space for player 2 to pass the ball ahead of player 4, who runs on to the ball.

This player then runs with the ball and passes the ball to player 3, now in the circle.

The next group start from player 3, pass to 2 and player 1 makes the space for the ball to be passed to player 5 in the space.

Player 2 is the only player staying in position, the rest can constantly swap places.

Shooting & Goalscoring

Attacking from deep left:

Player 2 (left wing) receives ball from the Player 1 (left midfield) and takes the ball into the zone where the defender can try and win the ball. Just before player 2 loses the ball he/she turns away from the RD and passes the ball to palyer 1. It is important that this player stays outside the 23m area and straight behind player 2. When player 1 receives the ball he/she plays the ball to player 3 who runs into the circle and has a shot at goal.
Every player then follows their own pass. and takes up their new position. Next player then starts.
