Two lines of players (one on each side) and a feeder/coach standing in the middle.
The player on the left passes the ball to the coach/feeder in the midde. As soon as the pass has been made a player from the right should start running straight towards goal.
The feeder turns and passes the ball into the path of the running player from the right. This player then shoots on goal.
The drill repeats from the other side.
This should be a smooth move, with running players timing their runs so that they arrive just as the ball is passed to them.
Center shot when running:
The ball should be caught with both hands, right foot is still in the air when catching (for right handed players), during the last step the ball is taken up to shoulder height before moving forwards explosively to throw the ball as the 'wrong' foot is in leading.
