Side Net Finish

Players: 2+ | Difficulty: 1 |

Description:  Shooting into the side netting from multiple angles.

Instructions

1. An outside players/coach is set at each goal post.

2. When about to pass, one player/coach yells a color.

3. Player A will turn and sprint to and around that color cone outside the 18yd box.

4. The coach/player will then yell a side (left/right) and pass Player A the ball.

5. On the run, Player A will shoot to that side of the goal.

Rules

• Player A must round a cone, then shoot the incoming pass to the side of the goal that is called.

Setup

• 3 Different colored cones set up 3-5 yards apart on top of the 18yd box or D.

  • If you don't have different colored cones, you can instead call a direction.

Rotation

• Players rotate out after 2-4 repetitions.

Coaching Points

• Can make 1 or 2 touch.

• This drill focuses on players shooting from multiple angles.

  • (Ex. If a player ran around the Red Cone & is getting a pass from the left post, the angle is different than if they got the pass from the other post or had to run around a different cone).

• Can the player slot each angle of pass into the corner of the goal?

• How firm of a pass can the player accurately shoot & place?
  

For Youth Coaching:
