A short spoken walk-through of this drill.
Goal
Score three goals in one sequence through clinical finishing and timed runs into the box.
Setup
Station A at the 'D', Station B inside the box, Station C/D on the corner of the 18-yard box. Goal with a keeper.
Drill Instructions
1. Player A passes to B, who lays it off for A to strike first-time. 2. A immediately receives a new ball and lays it back for B to shoot from the edge of the box. 3. A ball is played wide to Player C who is checking in to receive the ball from station C/D; C passes to D, overlaps, receives the return, and crosses for A and B to finish.
Coach Tip
Call out 'Check your shoulders' and 'Attack the vacant space' to ensure players are moving dynamically between shots.
Avoid
Flat-footedness; players must stay on their toes and react immediately to the next ball in the sequence.
Adjust on the fly
Make it easier
Remove the overlap element and have the wide player cross the ball directly after one touch.
Make it harder
Add two recovering defenders who enter the box only for the final cross from the wide area.
