Overview
- A solo technical session players can run on their own
- Uses mannequins or cones to sharpen shooting accuracy from different angles
- Builds the foundation for those split-second decisions players face in a game
- Especially good for helping your finishers put the ball in the net
Objectives
- Dial in shooting timing
- Learn to strike the ball accurately from a range of angles and distances
- Speed up decision-making and execution in tight space
- Develop players who always have a nose for goal
Setup
Players work in a third of the field, dribbling through a gap between two mannequins and finishing.
1)Set up two mannequins or cones in a third of the field (about 1m to 1.5m apart)
2)The player starts on the ball, runs through the gap between the mannequins, and takes a shot
3)Start with a straight run, then add a run behind the mannequin, then a shot from an angle over the shoulder — keep building in variations
4)Run each pattern around 5 times
