Passing: - Encourage that all passes are accurate with a good ball speed. - Progressions could be that passes are made off the right foot in order to encourage constant movement even on the pass. Shooting: - Encourage that the receive either takes them into a Tomahawk shot or a forehand shot. - Progression could be that the players are encouraged to shoot off their right foot for a forehand shot and left foot for a tomahawk shot.
