Inside the Practice

This practice is designed to improve a wide variety of shooting techniques while under pressure.

Coaching Pointers:
There are two teams of four players. Three in each team are restricted to the defensive zone and one is place in the attacking zone. The three players, plus the goalkeeper, must try and keep possession from the attacker. After four passes on player attacks the middle zone and shoots at goal to try and score. The attacker’s mission is to disposes the players in possession and try and score. Player in the attacking zone can also look for a pass or rebound to score.

Make a competition out of the exercise, first team to score 3 goals win!
