Powerful Shooting

I am interested in how to teach young boys shoot very powerful shots. How is it that Croation players for instance have this skill? Are they training their youth differently from the Swedish youth?. My opinion is that if you have a powerful shot, it is much easier to score without too much playing before the defence and risk to loose the ball. Interested for a training program or drills for different ages. Thank you for possible asking your experts. Jarl-Boie Boman, HultsfredsHF.-submitted by email

How do I improve my gameunderstanding?

The Question:How can I optimally increase my gameunderstandig.Introduction: I am a 15y (M), and I've been playing for about a year. I've already been taken out for the lowest form of "collection events of promising talents", if you could call it that. The Problem:My problem is the lack of experience in this sport, and therefore make errors when I try to be a playmaker. I feel like I'm setting my fellow teamates up for failures, and I feel like like I have to improve myself at a much faster pace then now.
