Combinations to Goal, #1
Combinations to Goal, #1
Set Up:
To begin the drill, Player 1 combines with Player 2 on a double pass combination. As Player 2 touches the ball back, he starts his overlapping run to goal. Player 1 passes up to Player 3 and supports the play from behind. Player 3 lays the ball off for Player 2 to finish. Upon completion, Player 1 goes to the deepest cone line, Player 3 goes to the first cone line, and Player 2 goes back to the start.
Coaching Points:
1. Passing – Players must make accurate one touch passes or the sequence will be too slow.
2. Timing the Run – Watch the play develop and hold your run if an extra touch is made.
3. Feinting – Disguise the last pass to make it difficult for the GK to anticipate the finish.
Progressions:
1. Player 1 follows his pass in, giving Player 3 two shooters to pass to.
