Shooting on
the Turn Drill
Purpose:
To develop
player's ability to shoot in turning situations.
Procedure: The game
takes place from the width of the penalty area up to the
half-way line where two small goals are placed on the sides of
the area. The squad is split up into three teams with one
goalkeeper; one team act as ball retrievers. The attacking team
have two players who are restricted to the penalty box - the
other attackers are not allowed inside. The two defenders stand
inside the goal area while the others play outside the penalty
box. The out-field players attempt to play the ball to one of
their colleagues in the box who, in turn, tries to turn and
shoot or lay the ball for his team-mate to shoot first time. One
of the defenders may leave the penalty area to make a challenge
when the ball enters the box, while the other blocks the goal.
If the defenders win the ball they attempt to play it through
one of the small goals.
Development:
(a)
The coach can impose the condition that the two attackers are
only allowed one pass inside the penalty box.
(b) Initially, the
coach can restrict the defenders so that only one can challenge
the two attackers - the other must stand on the goal line with
the goalkeeper.
(c) The coach can award extra points for the use
of difficult skills which result in a goal, e.g. volleys or
half-volleys, shots on the turn, and "bicycle" kicks. |
