Set Up:
-
Two teams of four player, each with a goalkeeper.
-
Players are in pairs.
-
GK starts with the ball and rolls it onto the field to start the drill
-
Four players run thru gates before entering the field.
-
Play continues 2 v 2 to completion. If the ball goes out of bounds, the other goalkeeper distributes a new ball to a new pair of players.
Coaching Points:
-
As soon as the goalkeeper throws a ball out, be ready to get moving.
-
Look for any opening to shoot.
-
Speed of play is important. Playing too slow allows the defenders to organize.
-
Be creative on the attack. Look to create 2 v 1 combinations.
-
Placement over power when shooting.
