Players movement on and off the ball is the focus of this drill, not so much shooting at goal, although it is the title of the drill. Players are encouraged to pre-scan before leading and/of passing the ball, thus encouraging players to make informed decisions when on and off the ball. Players are also encouraged to play well-weighted passes, thus allowing the receive to lead the attacker to score.
