The primary aim of this plan is to work on clinical finishing for your forwards and strikers and improve play in and around the final third so your side get more shots on goal.
The secondary aim is to give your goalkeepers and defenders a thorough workout, working on their shot stopping credentials.
What's in the Session?
To improve speed of play we kick off with a passing triangle warm up and then move speedily on to developing your players' shooting accuracy.
Quality end products are the order of the day in the 4 shooting drills that follow, as we encourage your players to take no more than 3 touches to finish (speed of shot is key to give the opposition as little time as possible to adjust).

Under FutureFit, your Under-9s stay at 5v5, your Under-11s stay at 7v7 and your Under-13s stay at 9v9. Same pitch, same numbers, one more year. Here is how to make sure that year feels like a step forward rather than a repeat.
Most 1v1s are lost in the first second, when the defender rushes in and dives. Teach your players to slow the attacker down, take away the dangerous option and pick the right moment, and they will win far more of them.
The FA's FutureFit framework lands this season, bringing a 3v3 entry format at Under-7s. Here is what actually changes on a Saturday morning, and how to coach it well.
