A short spoken walk-through of this drill.
Goal
Score a goal within 8 seconds of the initial pass from the coach.
Setup
Divide players into two teams. Place a goalkeeper in each net and set up three lines at the halfway line.
Drill Instructions
1) The coach plays a ball to a trio of players starting at midfield. 2) Attackers must cross the 18-yard box within 5 seconds. 3) Finish the play with a shot on goal. 4) Immediately after the shot, the coach plays a ball to the opposing team to start a counter-wave in the opposite direction.
Coach Tip
Encourage players to look up and spot the goalkeeper's position before they enter the penalty area.
Avoid
Allowing too many touches or slowing down the momentum once the ball is received.
