DESCRIPTION

Setup the practice as shown.

Coach starts on the goal line by one of the penalty corner lines.

Player 1 starts on the 25 yard line and dribbles to the top of the circle before shooting at goal. The same player then continues their run to receive a second ball from the coach to simulate a rebound situation.

COACHING POINTS

- Players should focus on each shot in turn

- The ball should be struck as soon as it crosses the D line on the initial shot

- The second ball should be maximum of three touch (two touch for more experienced players)

Right Wing - Cross and Shoot:

Setup the practice as shown.

The Right Wing starts with the ball and dribbles to the defenders penalty corner mark, commit the Goalkeeper and then pass to a player moving in to receive the ball in line with the right post.

The player on the move must time their run and run on an arc to hold space, with their left shoulder pointing at the goal.

Player moving to receive the ball can use a slap hit or flick to shoot.

Quick Shot Relay:

The practice starts with the first red player dribbling their ball to the goal line before passing the ball back to the player who is on the penalty spot.

The player receiving the ball then shoots at goal and the player who made the pass (red player 1) carries on their run to the penalty spot to replace player 4.

The same happens on the left hand side and the practice continues to loop around alternating from the the right and then the left.
