Coaching Pointers:
Divide players into two equal groups. Groups are placed diagonally opposite, as in the diagram above. Goalkeepers are placed in both goals. Two flag poles are positioned in the middle of the area. Each player has a ball.
The practice starts when player “1” attacks the flag pole, performs a body feint and shoots at goal. After shooting
he must transition quickly from attack mode to defense and sprint across the square to defend player “2”.
Player “2’ is attacking the opposite goal. After he shoots he then must defend. After defending players return to
their own groups.
Focus On:
Accuracy over Power.
Quickness of transition from offense to defense.
Goalkeepers shot stopping. |
