Football: introduction : center shot

See every center shot nestle in the back of the net. All it takes is a cool head and a flawless technique. We reckon you can handle that!

Pairs move to and away from each other and move in to each other while passing.

They should try to receive passes while moving towards the ball and also while retreating, working on receiving the ball while running in different directions and passing to moving players.

Players stand in line waiting their turn to attack. The first player passes to player two in the middle who plays an immediate ball back into the path of the player who passed to them.

This player should then catch the ball and shoot with a center shot on goal.

Variations :

- center shot when running

- center shot hip height

- center shot knee height

 

First without a defender, later with a passive defender who only shows the attacker where to throw : defender has hands high --> attacker should decide for a shot at hip of knee height. Defender has hands low --> attacket decedis to throw with a high shoulder height center shot or running shot.

Players take it in turns to attack in a 2 vs 1, with one player from the left pairing with the central player or a player from the right pairing with the central player (player 1 and 2 or player 2 and 3).

Once players are past the defender they should have a shot on goal before retrieving the ball and rejoining the back of their respective line.
